March 26, 2012- Conference Prep

Hey Everyone!!
This week went super well!! Our friend João Pedro got baptized on Saturday and his mom who has been less-active in the church came to the baptismal service and to church on Sunday so we are hoping to be able to help her get back on track to receiving the blessings that come from activity in the gospel!! We had another lady, Ana and her son, Miguel, come to church yesterday, too and they loved it!! They want to get baptized but Ana has to work a lot on Sunday so a member in the ward is going to help her find a new job this week and perhaps she will get baptized in the coming weeks. Everybody here is getting really excited for General Conference! It seems like there has been given a lot of emphasis on preparing ourselves spiritually for this great conference. Everything is still going great and we are enjoying each day that we get to serve with all of our might!! I love you all and hope you give the little ones some loves for me!!!
Love,
Elder Michael J. Neilson


April 2, 2012- Conference is the Best!


Hey everyone!!
Conference was SO incredible this weekend!! One of our friends investigating the church, Abilio, attended all of the sessions and was awe-struck at the end and told me that ‘everybody in the world needs to watch at least one of these conferences to understand what the Church is about’.  I loved all the talks and especially Elder Hallstrom’s when he talked about the importance of being active in the gospel AND in the church.  It was a great week and weekend tho and we are all pretty charged up to go out and work even harder now!!  We are going to spend a lot of time this week looking for new people to teach and bring this beautiful message to and hopefully we can help them enter the waters of baptism like so many of the speakers at conference talked about!!  I love you all and wish you a Happy Easter and that we may all remember just exactly what the resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, means for each and every one of us.  Give the little ones some loves for me!!!!!
Love,
Elder Michael J. Neilson
