Hola

Hey Fam, 

Hows it going everyone? It feels like forever since ive sent a group email. Im pretty sure Cruz and kaiboy both had bdays this month. So ill have to give a big shout out, feliz cumpleaños primos. Les quiero mucho y espero que uds tenían un día muy especial.

Things have been really good here in Mexico. My comp and i have been seeing so many miracles in our area. We had a baptism yesterday and it went so awesome. La hermana was so ready and my comp and i were so pumped for her. Oh and her friend came all the way from canada to baptise her. He is an awesome guy, recent convert of 3 years and hes a stud. I wish i could just sit down with all you guys so i can explain all the blessings because its so hard to do over email. But yeah things have been great.

Ive been working a lot with my district and its been so awesome. I had divisions with and Elder who is going home in a month and i learned so much from. It was an awesome day and we had some pretty great lessons. Im really loving the mission so much. Sharing the gospel everyday all day has been so amazing. I feel so much joy in my life and im so grateful for this opportunity i have to serve. I know without a doubt this church is true and that our Heavenly Father know us and loves us more than we could ever imagine.

I love you all tons and i hope you have a great week!

Love,

Elder Nobmann

P.S. Ian, jackson, mom, and dad les amo con todo mi corazón. Les doy gracias a uds por su ejemplo y amor. Se que uds son mi apoyo y estoy muy agradecido de que yo soy parte de esta familia.

hey

hey guys,

So i had a pretty amazing experince this week. So we were teaching this hermana who is so ready for baptism. She read the entire gospel principals book. But as we were teaching my comp was doing the whole i got 19 months thing and literally would not let me speak. The whole time he was just trying to be the hero and answer all her doubts. Ive learned with him i just need to be paciente because if i get get angry ill lose the spirit. But it even came to the point were i had a scripture ready to share and my comp looked at me and said...my comp has a scripture but im going to share my favorite instead. I was like youve got to be kidding me. But even after almost 20 mins of him talking she still kept on doubting.

But finally i was able to talk and all i did was share alma 32:21 and my testimony to here. I talked for like 3 mins and just testified of the church and the importance of fe especially in trials. I just shared how ive seen so many miracles through this gospel.  Literally when i finished she had tears and her eyes and she said..thats it i dont have any more doubts im ready for baptism, that cleared it all up. Than she thanked me and said wow im shaking. She showed us her hand and she was literally shaking. After we had the interview wioth our zone leaders for her baptism. We were all together in the room and she told everyone how thankful she was for me and how she believes that God but me in her path and that im so young but i have so much power. We all had some tears.

Honestly blew me away this experince. I only share it with you guys cause it literally was a blessing from the Lord because i have been working so hard and its been a tough month. We had her baptism yesterday and it went great. You guys i just want you to know i know without a doubt this church is true. About two weeks ago marked a year of fasting every week. I think i i only missed 3 weeks in the past year. But i cant even describe the blessings ive seen through those fasts and fast offerings. The Lord has blessed me so much and im so grateful. 

I know this church is true and i know families will be togther for ever. I cant thank you guys enough for your help and for preparing me for this mission. I literally think of your guys example every single day here in the mission. How to love, work hard, and be firm. Its made all the difference for me, i love you and thank you!

Love,

Elder Nobmann

Hey

Hey Fam,

Just want to give a huge shout out to my mom for her bday! Happy birthday mom, i hope you had such an awesome week and thanks for being the most amazing mom ever!! Your testimony and example has changed my life, thank you for always giving it your all for us! You and the fam are my rock and i love you all so much.

So the past couple of weeks have been crazy. Been working super hard and a lot with my district. Its been an awesome learning experiance and i love every second of it. Funny thing happen this past week, remember that story about my comp throwing in the towel in as a joke. Well guess he was actually pretty serious so thats been cool. But hey i love every second in the mish because i know its all for a reason. Just got to keep trucking along and learn to forget myself and love everyone :) 

We had some really awesome spiritual times this past couple of weeks. The Lord is definitly by our side here in the mish which is awesome. I love you all so much and i hope you have an awesome week! 

Love,
