10/7/2019 Week 101: 2 More Days!

The time has come. First I would like to start of by saying if anyone for some reason wants to email me still, my new email is cdm11376656@gmail.com. This week was a great week though with General Conference. My favorite talk was President Oakes talk in the first session. If you are interested go read it. My mom said this better be a great last email but I am not sure if I can do that😂. I will try. I have been thinking a lot about the last 2 years from the good to the bad to the mediocre. Last week in the temple I decided to read 3 Nephi 11 because that's when Christ came to the America's and I teared up reading the first verse where it said that they marveled at the changes that had occurred. And I related to that personally because at that moment the Lord blessed me to remember, forgive, and cherish every single millisecond of time that I had. I know that I have experienced the greatest joy of my life and nothing will surpass it until I am married and have kids. Even the times that I suffered in the negative degree cold with a bad companion, every 30 min to an hour long bike ride in 90° degree weather, every car drive, every walk, every bus, every contentious lesson I would give all I have to experience again. I love my mission and I love the people and I love God more. I have given a 10th of my life so I can help others change theirs. I will always remember the smiling faces and tear filled sincere prayers. That will be in my heart till the day I die and even on to eternity. Thanks for all the support and emails for the last 2 years. I needed them the whole time. Talk to you all soon. BYE! 

10/2/2019 Week 100 (Part 2): Temple Day

Hello everyone. Sorry I didn't email on Monday we moved our pday to today so we could go to the temple. This last week was good though we had zone conference and it was a mission tour so Elder Bassett of the 70 came out and talked to us. The I went on exchanges in a trio companionship with the zone leader and district leader so that was a blast. Then yesterday we put someone on date for baptism. I won't be there but I don't need to be. They progress at there own speed and I am just happy they are making the commitment to grow. I had a departing interview with the mission president yesterday as well which was okay. Just talked about my plans and how I will reach them. All in all this week has proven to be a part of a great conclusion to my mission. I have been able to learn a lot and one of those things is to accept when the time is right to let others take the preverbal reigns. Though I will still be a missionary in heart and mind I will be able to progress like the people I have met. I think I am ready to go home honestly. I remember my call said a period of 24 months, no more no less and I have been able to accomplish that. Talk to yall later. Bye

9/30/2019 Week 100 (Part 1): 9 Days Left

I am not writing my full email today because I am going to the temple on Wednesday so my preparation day is moved to Wednesday.

9/23/2019 Week 99: 16 Days Left

Hello everyone, this week was good like most of them are. Did some finding and had some lessons of of course. We fed so many ducks this week. I have made an army. They will fly me home. I also got an email with all my flight info so that kinda stunk but oh well. I finished reading the book of Mormon again for the 4th time on the mission but I don't think I will be getting to squeeze a 5th time in. We did service this week trying to install an invisible fence for a members dog but surprisingly the ground was so hard we couldn't put it low enough or the dog would dig it up. But that's really all for this week. Talk to you later.

9/16/2019 Week 98: 23 days left

Hello everyone. Good week. Lots of food was included so that's great. We had a family home evening in the ward we're I ate about 3 plates of food. Then 2 days later there was a birthday for a member at the same place so I ate another 3 plates. Then we also had Interviews this week so we packed 6 Elders in the car and drove to Fishers so that was fun. Then we drove back with over 20 loaves of bread. Then of coarse through out the week we worked and I fixed my bike. So everything is back to order. Talk to you next week.
