Hey everyone! (:
The months have felt like weeks and now the weeks are
feeling like days. So in that case, I'll be seeing you all in about four
days...
This week was fabulous. Of course. Every week is fabulous.
It wasn't a very productive week, since we spent most of our time downtown with
President Parella. We had interviews, stake conference and Zone Conference,
which took up three days of work. I almost cried when I found out, seeing as
three days of work are really precious to me right about now! But no, it worked
out just fine (:
Zone Conference was great. I got to see 5 of my past
companions again, so there were a lot of tears and a lot of hugging (: Heavenly
Father put such special girls into my life and I am so grateful that I got to
see them all again (: It was so special to be with them all again and for them
to hear my departing testimony. Those girls have been with me through so many
things, and they have truly helped me to become this person that I am now. I
have taken a little piece of each one of them with me in my heart. They are
incredible girls.
So yeah, it was my last Zone Conference. And that means that
all the departing missionaries have the privilige of bearing their testimony
one more time. I think that was the day that I was dreading the most (mostly
because I was worried about just bawling my eyes out and not being able to
speak like a human... haha.) But really, I was not looking forward to it.
However, as we sat together during that conference, the sweetest feelings came
into my heart, like I truly did and truly became the missionary that the Lord
needed me to be.
As I bore my testimony one last time, I couldn't help but
think of the Savior. It was because of Him that I was able to do this. A
mission has never been easy for me. However, with the help of my Savior Jesus
Christ, it was worth every minute. He helped me get through it all. I know that
because of Him, I was able to see miracles. There's much that I could say on
this subject, but the biggest miracle that I have seen on my mission is the
miracle that I have seen in myself. I know my Savior and I love Him.
I love you all so much. I miss you continually, but I can't
wait to see you all again. Things are going fabulously here. We have three
baptisms on Saturday (: I'm not giving up, that's for sure. Race to the finish
(: Oh, how I love this work! I love you all! Have a great week!
