Trunkkkeeyyy!

I am not exactly sure ladies and gentlemen but I think this will be my last e-mail home. I am not sure what to write about in this last e-mail. Not much i guess. 

haha well as the title says, I would not be lying if i didn't say I wasn't trunky. But, its not to bad, we still have a lot of appointments to get to and other things that need to get done this last week, so I feel pretty good about it. 

It is really starting to feel so real that I will be home next week, it is insane! and this week will go by so fast because of all the stuff we have to do! and I am really excited for it as well. Ahh, words just can not describe what I feel right now. i am just so grateful for my mission and all that it has done for me, and everyone else I was blessed to work with and associate with. I can go on and on with the blessings, and things that have happened to me on my mission that has changed for for eternity, and i can't express how grateful I am for the opportunity i had to serve, especially here in the Philippines. such a blessing. I can't even imagine where I would be at in life right now if I didn't serve a mission, and it definitely would not even be close as it would of been right now haha. 

I am super excited to come home and see everyone again, and I hope you are all doing great! I love you all so much for your support for me, and your never ending love and prayers for me. thank you! 

I hope all of you will take care of yourself, and I will see you next week! thats insane!!!!

The End is Nearer

Well my friends what can i say, this last week, was the same as it was the week before just not at successful.. which was a real bummer but hey, can't say we didn't give our efforts! and then a lot of un expected things happened like me falling into a rice field and getting all muddy hahaha yeah that was a first for me! we had to go back to change clothes, and I didn't have any clothes to change into!! we were scrambling for some clothes, but ended up getting some and getting back to work. we have some new progressing investigators but they didn't come to church, but we had one new investigator come to church which was really nice to see as always.

tomorrow we have a special training zone meeting with President Mangum from 9am-2:30pm. this is the second time I hve had this kind of meeting in my mission, and the last one was of the President chastising us hardcore haha, and then really inspiring us all to do way better. I think maybe our mission is really struggling right now, so i guess President mangum is throwing down the hammer! But who knows what good ol President has got up his sleeve i am excited! 

Well we will keep it short this week, I am still seeing miracles in my mission, and I know i will till the very last day, actaully I have to give a 1 hour workshop at a missionary fireside the day before I leave hahahah so that should interesting.

I love you all and I will see you in 2 weeks!! what!!!
