i love letters from missionaries.
<3
I really cannot get enough of them! Ever since I was little and my dad was the ward mission leader I have totally loved missionaries! Just the amazing sacrifice they give for our church and the love the emanate for everyone around them.
"They leave their families for two years so others can be with theirs for eternity."
I love that quote.
Alright everyone, we are getting serious now!
Lately, I have been thinking a lot about serving a mission. I know it is still two years off, but I have never thought about it this much or this often. It could be the fact that half of the girls in my ward are return missionaries and I now have a roommate that served a mission. But nonetheless I am really thinking about it. And these woman are probably some of the strongest and happiest that I have ever met. And the knowledge that they have attained from going on missions is incredible. Since I am the first counselor I got the chance to call some incredible girls to be our teachers for Relief Society. I cannot wait to here from some amazing sister RM's :)
^look how happy I am to be writing missionaries^
(yes, if you are my friend and you go on a mission you will get multiple letters from me)
The greatest thing I have been able to be experiencing this year are mission farewells and mission call openings and the best are mission homecomings. I have the most amazing respect and love for all of my guy friends that are going on missions and are ready and worthy to serve the Lord. I can't believe we are already at this stage of our life! Girls that I graduated with are already MARRIED! whoa. slow down.
I even have more respect for those boys how struggle to go on missions. I think I almost cried when my best friend told me he decided he wanted to go on a mission. It came in a text that said something like... "I wanna go." I think that was the most beautiful thing I have ever read on my phone. You know who you are and you know how much I love you. You are making the right choice and you will not regret it. Stick with it boy. I am here supporting you one hundred and fifty percent. I love you.
best feeling ever. :)
Keep up the good work my lovely friends.
