Friends & Family,
This
week was full of emotion. I felt like this week went by so fast, it is
crazy! I just want to start off by saying how grateful I am to be on my
mission. I seriously thought I couldn't be more happy than I was at home
with basketball, friends, family! Yes I miss all those so much but this
Mission has already changed my life! I was happy then but having this
knowledge of this gospel and living it has brought such happiness and
joy in my life! I love everything about being a missionary! Yeah is it
super hard and frustrating at times but those are the best times. Those
are the times that your testimony grows. As you trust in the lord and
keep moving forward!!
One
of the hardest things is going door to door and seeing how all these
people have problems... I am not saying I don't have problems or I am
perfect but people having serious problems with family, money, marriage,
legal stuff, drugs, etc. I hate seeing this stuff! EVERY DAY!! we see
this stuff! It is crazy how much I love the people here. People I don't
even know. I know that Heavenly Father is giving me a little piece of
his love for these people to me because I care and love all these
people! All I want to do is help them and it is so sad when they reject
this gospel, because I know this gospel will bless their lives and help
them! This gospel is one thing that will pick you back up when you're
down! I know that one day these people we contact will have the desire
to change their hearts!
On the good side... GUESS WHO HAS A BAPTISMAL DATE? (drummmm roll.....)
SHELBY!!!!!!!!!!
woahh!!! The best week of my mission.. I couldnt be more happier for
her. She has completly changed her life around. This will be my very
first baptism and i am so glad it is shelby!! I love her so much and
pray everyday that everything will work out and she will get baptized on
march 29th 2015 :)
Words
cant express my love for this gospel and how happy i am that i have
this in my life!!! I wouldnt want to be anywhere else.. but her serving
my mission!!! I am glad that i know i can brighten the lives of others.
Every week people telling me that my smile brightens there day makes me
so happy!!! If thats all i am here for i am glad i am brightening others
lives!!
I love each of you guys and miss you!1 I hope y'all have a great week.. :)
And mom i cant wait to skype you on mothers day in 70 days.. I love you!!
Con amor,
