Transfers be happenin' in the Golden State

Hey there everybody!

Everything is going pretty awesome here in Citrus Heights! We are still teaching Bob, and he is doing awesome! He can't read small print very well, so his wife is reading the Book of Mormon to him every day. She isn't a member of the Church either, so it is really exciting stuff! We taught them the plan of salvation this past week, and it went really well! 


We also met with Chris this week as well. He is the guy that got out of prison a bit ago and is wanting to change his life around. He told us that he is on parole, so he is going to have to wait until he isn't anymore so that he can be baptized. He told us that he was kind of bummed about that, but he is just going to be patient and look forward to the day when he can be baptized! We showed him a bible video this past week about the good Samaritan, and Chris talked about how he has gone around finding ways to help people as well. We told him that he is already preparing to take upon him the name of Jesus Christ by looking for those opportunities to serve the people around him.

Elder Nielsen got to go to the Sacramento Temple last week.
We got transfer calls yesterday, and I am staying here in Citrus Heights in the Tempo Park ward! Elder Tomblin is getting transferred way up North to Andersen, so I will be getting a new companion. His name is Elder Peek, and I have heard that he is a pretty cool guy! I am looking forward to working with him. He is coming in tomorrow morning at 10:30, so hopefully everything goes well with that!

I hope you all have an awesome week! Love you all!

Love,
Elder Ethan Nielsen
