I'm Home....Hugs for Everyone!!!! |
This
week was my final week here in the mission field. It has been a very good week
here.
We had the opportunity to speak in Sacrament Meeting this week about missionary work and how members can be missionaries and have the same skills that missionaries do. I think the talk went very well and I feel that it helped in some way for some one.
We also
had the opportunity teach one of our investigators about repentance and how
when we have repented. We don't need to dig up old garbage and re-live the
guilt that we felt when we did something wrong. She seemed grateful and she
couldn't stop smiling during the lesson. We could stop smiling either because
we could see the connections that she was making and the progress that she was
experiencing.
August 1st, 2018 Missionaries Going Home... |
We were able to teach
our recent convert the rest of the missionary lessons and help her find some
more chapels that she could attend on her travels. She was happy that we had
taught her the missionary discussions and she was also a little sad that we
were going to be leaving. So were we.
Our Branch had a Face2Face with 2 other Missionaries that returned this Month, Jared Medearis (California, Riverside Mission) and Mariah Cook (Canada Edmonton Mission). Over 50 attended... |
We had the privilege to
do some service for a member and help her clean out her shed. She was concerned
about her things being on the ground and getting rotted out so we put some card
board on some bricks to get it up off the ground.

As this is the last blog
of my mission, I would like to thanks all of my family and friends that have
supported me in this adventure. I would like to leave you with my knowledge and testimony that the Book of Mormon is true and that our Heavenly Father loves each one of
us. He hears and answers our prayers. He loves us and wants us to return to
live with Him. I know that Joseph Smith was and is a prophet of God and that
The Church of Jesus Christ is here on the earth today.
I am so very blessed to
have served a Mission for Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ....Til' We Meet Again...
