Hello everyone!
Greetings from the Nellis Manor ward in North Las Vegas! This week has been full of getting oriented into a new world. It's exciting. Nellis Manor is thus named because it includes the Nellis Air Force Base. Well named, don't you think? I agree. The base reminds me a lot of home, minus the beautiful mountains and green and life in general. But it's super fun. My companion is Elder Shaw. He's a red head from Washington State, a foot taller than I am, and he's a great missionary. We get along pretty well already, which is a good sign! The members of the ward here really want to do missionary work and so we get the opportunity to show them how. It's going to result in a lot of people getting to hear the wonderful news of the Restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I can't wait.

The Lord is merciful. We'll be up and running soon and the Lord will bless this area with miracles. I'm sure of it. He wants nothing more than to bless all of his children with all of His blessings. I testify that the Gospel brings peace, direction, and support into our lives. There is an unseen hand that supports us when we need it as we are living righteously. I'm grateful for the gift of the Holy Ghost that was conferred upon me by a man holding the authority to do so. I'm grateful for the priesthood and righteous families. There is so much good in this world. And minus the tupperware full of scorpions that the last missionary here left on top of the ceiling fan (no idea why), I think this place will be full of pleasant surprises. All my best to you. If you need help, go to the Lord. Search the scriptures, pray, and go to church. Those things bring revelation to our lives. Keep up the good work! Talk to you next week!!!
