Email from Sept 27


Things have been so crazy, it's hard to even explain. I am fisically wrecked. When I get home from my mission, I will need to go to a chiropractor and a massage therapist. By body just doesn't function how it should. So, we need to get that planned in for the first week I'm back. In two days, I accumulated less than 5 hours of sleep! One night, I got home at 1 am and woke up at 4 am. The next night, I went to bed at like 1:15 and woke up at 3:45. Exhausting! All that because of so much stuff to do to get ready for transfers. Today, for P-Day, we just slept. From 8:30-4 we were all asleep. When we woke up, we showered, got ready, and then left to preach the gospel until 9. It was fantastic. Being in the mission takes such a spiritual, mental, and emotional toll on one's body. And being in this mission, it takes a fisical toll that nobody truly understands unless you've served here. It's mission culture and I love it.

Things have been going so well. The work is really progressing and good stories are being made. With all of this craziness that has been going on, I haven't had time to write in my journal. The only time I've found to write home is at 11 pm on a Thursday night. I don't have much time. Just writing to let y'all know that I'm alive.

If it's ever crossed y'all's minds, I do not want y'all to come down here and pick me up. It's a hassle. If you would want to come after, we can. But at the end of the two years, I'm just going to want to go home.

I love when the Lord reminds me that He is a God of Miracles. In just this week, I've seen so many that it is incredible. A miracle happens every day that I can even get up and do it all over again. The mission is the best. Through me, the Lord has changed a lot of lives. But the life he's changed the most has been mine. I'm not the same person anymore.

General Conference weekend is coming up! I love General Conference weekend! Why? Because we hardly work. It's a time to Come and Listen to a Profet's voice...and rest from all our labors.

There are miracles to be had. I need to go find them.

Love y'all!
