May 17, 2016 - Last Transfer!

Hey everyone!!

So we have transfers this week and, and i am getting transferred for my last one! I am a little bummed but i will be really close, i am only getting transferred over to Downtown New Orleans, so i am about 6 miles away from this area, and i am still in the same ward so that is cool. My companions name is Elder Johnston and we will start tomorrow so that is crazy!! But this week was good we had some good things happen.

But lately I have been thinking a ton about how fast these last 2 years have gone. i literally can't explain to y'all how fast it goes by, but by far this is the best decision i have ever made in my life. I can not even imagine what my life would be with out this experience, or how i would have been able to learn this things that i need to do in my life with out being able to serve the lord! I am eternally grateful for this opportunity and i hope that i did my best with the time he has given me. i know i still have 6 weeks but i am going to do all i can and my best to be able to find those who have been searching for his gospel! I would recommend a mission to anyone who is able to serve. I'm not going to say in has been the easiest 2 years of my life, or even he best at time, but it has been the best 2 years for my life by far! I hope that i can continue my life to be able to live in a way that if there are people that don't know Christ or feel like they don't that i can be that example for them so i can live as my savior did! Sorry like this sounds like my last email (because its not) but i have been so very grateful for the person i have become through the atonement, from 3 or 4 years ago, its crazy to reflect and see the changes i have made and the goals and desires to do now!

I am excited to see what the Lord has in store for me these next couple of weeks, and also in my life. I hope all of you are doing great and well, and that you can fell the love of the savior every-single day, but because i can feel it so much every time i am in the service of my fellowmen! I love you all and i pray y'all have a great week!!
