Jordan's letter today
Well lets get the bad news out of the way first... The past 3 days Ive been really sick.. yes i did get a hitch hiker in my stomach.. dont worry its not harmful to my body it just makes me really sick. But thats the only really bad thing that has happened so far in the mission. Yeah I know life gets tough but when I teach a lesson in my broken spanish and see the peoples face light up and understand, Then I remember why i am here. Yeah life here in a mission something is always happeneing. Last Wed, We had our first splits, so I had to lead one of my zone leaders through my area teaching and tracking... It was funny at the start because he looked at me and asked,Do you know where you are going. I responed, I think so haha. He was a good sport about it all and very understanding beacuse i didnt know the area that well. I want everyone to be greatful for running water because me and my Comp (he is from Panama) didnt have water for a couple of days.. Once again its the mission life. I have had many people ask me about Trump and i just respond by saying Its not important to me because im from canada. Also tons of people just stare at me and they dont smile until i smile and say Hola orsomething to them. I would like to share a scrpiture with everyone, its Alma 8:19 It talks about when alma went to a city to teach and he asked a man for food. Why do i share this scripture this week? Its because my comp used it last night at a members house when we were hungrey. Super funny. Love life here in Catocha, Yes its hard and difficult but i know i can do it. hope everyone is doing well. Love everyone and miss you all.
PS One rule we have in the mission is we are not aloud to drink coke.... You can all guess how hard this is for me haha 
Love Elder Nelson
