Yellow from Mississippi

Yellow from Oxford Mississippi!!! This is my new area! here is my address: 1903 Anderson Dr. #c7 Oxford MS, 38655.

 

Well things are going great here i got my new companion Elder Clason! we get along real well and have fun together. He is training me for 3 months so i will be here for awhile! But tell dad that He needs to cheer on OLE MISS. Because Oxford is the city that OLE MISS college is in! and members have already told us that they are going to take us to games! it will be awesome! So my first day i got here i ate catfish! it was weird but other than that this whole week has been pretty normal food.

 

I Got to tell you a funny story... So me and my companion are out knocking doors and we are in this heavily populated black comunity... they are everywhere! So i knock on this door and this black dude, shorter than me by like a foot opens the door. I am like " Hey we are representatives of Jesus Christ and we were wondering if we could leave a prayer with you today?" and he says " Yeah! i am in need of a prayer! i am sinning right now." i started laughing so hard! haha this was my first investigator out in the field, his name is Matt and we are progressing with him. So when we were saying bye, we asked if we could come back and he said " yeah, i will be sinning then too, there will probably be a girl here...naked." he was dead serious when he said this stuff. Ah man it is sure a whole different world down here. So take advantage of Rexburg cause it is an awesome place.
 

We have some rich members out here! we ate at there houses! And they love OLE MISS! There are so many black people down here, it is awesome! we always try to talk to the black people because they are the nicest! white people tell us to leave every day! Today me and my companion went mountain biking! it was fun except that i bent the back rim on my bike! it kinda sucks. So maybe see if they can send me a new one off warranty? i dont ride it ever cause we have a car but ya. It is so freaking hott here it isnt even funny!! they made the new availabile pants to wear on missions now... it is that khacki color! so if you find some that are like skater ones id like some:) just not the real khackis that have all the pockets and stuff. But i also need to find some brown shoes. Anway tell the babies happy birthday! i am sending them an awesome present today they are going to love it!! i miss them and i miss you guys a lot. Anyway things are going great here! i forgot my camera at the apartment so i will send pictures next week! also for christmas or something sometime, ive realized it is so much better to have seperate scriptures, so not the quads for studying. So sometime i want the seperate small kind that would be awesome.

Everything is going good, there are some crazy people here and lots of students. So tell dad his new favorite team has to be OLE MISS! and let me know the scores of the games! Love everyone! and hope the babies like my present i spent good money on it!!

 

Love you to the moon and back! Tell Camden that his puppy is having the best time! He rode in an airplane! I will write you next week got to go. Love ELDER NIELSON. GO OLE MISS!
