Part 1
Part 2
Merry Christmas and by the time I email you next it will be a happy new year.
This week was great. Though without snow it doesn't feel like Christmas. But there is the Christmas spirit in the air. I'm writing this before I call home so I'm so excited to call home and talk with Josh and Ben and the rest of my family.
This week I have felt more like a missionary than I have in a long time. We picked up our mission president from the airport because we had our Christmas social this week. It was lots of fun, the Assistants came with them. President Kupu didn't proselyte with us but in the short time we spent with him I learned so much about missionary work and got pumped up to do so much better.
Being a missionary is freaking awesome and if you are thinking about going on a mission, pray about it, strengthen your testimony and go on a mission(Unless your a sister, then it's between you and God) I know I have grown so much, both physically, mentally and most definitely spiritually. My testimony is pretty solid but I've been told it can get even better.
I have hit and past my year mark and it's weird to think that just over a year ago I was sitting in my home hearing mission stories from Josh. I only spent about 6 hours with him before I left on my mission. 24 months sounds like a long time, but now I'm counting down from 12 months to go until I can try to bear hug the living tar out of my brother because I miss him so much.
I love you all,
Merry Christmas!!!
