Family and friends,
The final three! This surreal feeling is a little difficult to describe. Narrowing down on the last few weeks has me on edge. Ever since this last transfer began it has been slapping me across the face saying, "wake up, you're not staying here!" I know I've said it before, but for the longest time I've just felt like this is my life now. It's like you enter this trance where you think that life before the mission was just a dream and life after is an imagination, but it's clear that this is becoming more and more of a reality. So it's an interesting process.
Until it's over, I still have two more letters to write after this and I'll try to include some of the good things that have happened in the previous week!
We began teaching English classes. We've had one so far which went very well! Teaching English classes is one of those things that people like to call the "Ammon principle." Which means you're focused on serving first before you can expect anyone to be interested about the gospel. When Ammon did this, it led to the conversion of much of the Lamanite nation. So we'll see what happens!
I have my last zone conference coming up this week. I had my last normal interview with President Parry last week. My last interview will be the exit interview. All the in between that goes on really isn't too exciting since we sit in the Chapel all day to work, but I think there are many things that I get to learn even if I don't recognize it at the moment. I've learned at least a little bit more about how to use technology haha. That's something that I've never really been skilled in. Things like Facebook, slide presentations, teaching in zoom meetings, etc.. I'm still not always sure but it's going well for the most part.
Thank you all for your support!! It helps a lot and I hope you know that you're all part of the small miracles and blessings that I get to see!
Take care!
