The last

This has been a great week to be a missionary! We had 2 baptisms this
past weekend. First was for a lady named Debra. She's so great. There
was an amazing turn out. We had around 40 people! It was so nice to
see so many people there to support her in this decision. Then we had
a baptism for an 8 year old girl named Jenna. She lives with her
grandma, and she is super sweet. Her grandma has recently started
coming back to church, so the bishop asked us to go and teach Jenna
the lessons. It was a fun experience! It was so great to see her make
that huge step in her life!

This week we have a baptism for one of my favorite 11 year olds!
Alejandro is getting baptized! It's going to be so great!! I've seen
so many hearts soften in that house hold. His mom is now going to be
starting to take the lessons, and the whole family is going church
every week!!

We went over to an investigator this week that we haven't seen in
almost a month. She has never been to church and wasn't keeping
commitments. We went over, invited her to read the Book of Mormon
again, and invited her to church. She came to church! She read the
Book of Mormon! And now she is getting baptized on the 8th of October!
I'm super excited for her!!

Well this is my last week as a full time missionary. I'm so excited
because this is going to be the greatest week of my mission! I get to
use the accumulation of everything that I've learned to be able to
help as many individuals as possible come closer to Christ. I also am
really sad that this is my last week. This has honestly been the 2
greatest years for my life. I'm sad to see them come to an end.
Everything has a time and a season though. I've learned so much about
myself, social skills, the gospel, and my Savior. I've been able to
meet so many wonderful people. I've had struggles, hardships, and
disappointments that helped me learn so much. I've been able to
experience happiness, personal victories, and true joy. Now I get to
take all of this knowledge and apply it to the rest of my life! I'll
treasure these memories forever. The greatest memories are the ones
where I was able to clearly see the Atonement take place in my life
and lives of the individuals around me. It truly is a miracle every
single time. It's been such a blessing to be able to serve in a
leadership assignment most of my mission because of the close
association I've been able to have with so many great missionaries.

I look forward to being able to see all of you and sharing some of the
experiences that I've had. I love you all! Have a great week! I'll see
you next Tuesday.

I love the members that love our missionaries. Georgia Born is one of those great people! She fed these boys and kept them busy.
