Week 10: Dad email

Hello! 
Indeed it has been a good week. Every week feels faster than the last, it's crazy.

Thank you so much for sending music. They will be nice to have. I love how I can listen to semi-decent music out here haha. R.M. soundtrack is my current favorite. I only have two songs by them tho. In the Hollow of Thy Hand is fun, you should listen to it haha.

I went to the open house for like 3 minutes and got all 4 of us welcome decks. They are fun, suuuper simple tho. It kinda doesn't feel like Magic! (no counterspells, really!) but they are fun. We have been playing every night during decomp time. 2 of the missionaries already knew how to play. There are 3 zones in the mission that just play Magic every pday as a zone instead of sports haha. I got sent to the right mission! I'm super excited for you to send the missionary deck. It's gunna be awesome. I don't care if it's good or not. It will be fun to have for decomp time and for playing with Matt and his friends. It has been awesome. I tell them I'll play if they listen to a gospel message and so now Matt (the less active member) and his nonmember friends are learning more about the gospel because of cards. It's awesome!

The service was hard and really dirty but it was fun, never thought I would be doing that kind of work on my mission, that's for sure.

Teaching is going well. Our most solid person is on vacation right now but should be back soon. We have a lot of people who seemed solid this week but have been very challenging to talk to again since the doorstep which is slightly frustrating but hopefully we can keep working with them. Less active work is going well too. It's pretty important here given the huge amount of less actives. In October we are going to go on a bunch of splits with the elder's quorum and visit every member on LDS tools to see their status and try and reactive some.

I miss you and the family as well.

Love
Nathan
