Bom Semana!
Haha man before I start into the week let me just say that this
tri-companionship is the funniest thing ever.. I have never laughed sooo
hard! The best part is the work that we are getting done! I could not
ask for a better way to leave Fresno than how things are playing out
right now! I am almost emotional thinking about leaving this place. I
told my Branch President yesterday about My Visa and how I will be
departing for Brazil soon. So he decides that at the end of Sacrament
meeting to have me come up and give my testimony. Of course I am used to
it by now, but for some reason when i got up to the pulpit I was nearly
overcome with emotions which was super hard for me... No one else knows
about the visa so I had to stay strong and not give away the sadness i
felt! didnt want people thinking i was some softy for no reason;) But
honestly I am going to miss this place sooo much! I will never forget
the memories i made while here! So many stories, especially one of the
greatest miracles I have ever seen that I will tell you about when i
call at the airport! So many special and lasting moments that make
missions soooooo worth it. The best line I heard this week came from an
18 year old thinking about serving a mission who said "Seeing the way
you three act and enjoy your missions really makes me want to go!" and
honestly its sooo true. If it isn't fun you are doing it wrong!! I Love
you all!!
