Wow. WOW! Today I am Thailand bound. What a feeling.
This
week sped by. We had a wonderful devotional on Tuesday.. Elder Godoy
from the 70 came. He was so so sweet and brought such special spirit.
There really has been such a special spirit here. I think I have been so
focused on cramming in Thai and PMG that I hadn't really thought about
how much I would really miss this place. Miss these people. I love my
district so much. I love my teachers so much. They have all become
friends that I think I will hold very dear to my heart. When It came
time to say good bye on Saturday... My heart ached! And I cried. I will
miss them.
Today I went to the temple for the
last time for the next 16 months.. What a bitter sweet time that was. I
love the temple so much. There is a peace there that cannot be found
anywhere else. There is understanding that comes to the mind and the
heart. The spirit is there. Please go to the temple as often as you can
for me.
In class the other day we were asked
to take some time to reflect on the kind of missionary that we have
become thus far in our mission... The kind of missionary we had become
in the MTC... After reflecting for a little bit. I began to realize all
the things I have become... All the things I have learned.. In just this
short while. And all of it I owe to my Father in Heaven. Prabida Bon
Sawan. God is real.. I know that He is. I know He is with us in all
things. I know that He has called the Prophet Thomas S. Monson today
just the same as He has always called prophets. The Book of Mormon is
True. It is TRUE. Those prophets in the BOM are real people. They lived.
They were inspired. We are fighting for the same cause as they.
Today
I leave at 3:00 for the SL Airport!! My suitcases are 45 lbs and 47 :)
So perfect! Thank goodness. I am excited to get Cafe Rio and Pink Berry
at the Air port.. I am excited to place a BOM... I am excited to fly for
15+ straight hours..... I am so excited to meet my mission president. I
am so excited to meet my new companion. Most of all I am excited to
serve the Thai people.
Thank you all so much for you love and support. You will never know the impact that it has had.
I love you all so much.
