Well, another week has come & gone! It's so crazy how fast it goes. Everytime I write these emails it feels like I just barely got done writing the last one. At the beginning of my mission I set a count down up on my phone counting down the days that I had until I would get home thinking that the less time I had the happier I would be about coming home, but now that it is getting so low I wish it was saying that is how long I have been on my mission!
This week I also sent a couple missionaries home, one of those being Hermana Kono! Soo crazy, she was the only one going home that was originally called to serve in Wisconsin. I got to go on exchanges with Elder Cook, one of my past companions, and Elder Hatch, one of my last District Leaders & then a couple other super good missionaries! We were driving a lot, but thanks to technology we can find in my area in Milwaukee no matter where we are at! What a blessing that is!
I have been on the guitar grind as much as I can recently & it is sooo fun. It's amazing how music brings the spirit so strong! Also, when you practice something you really can get better at it haha! Some day I'll get around to practicing the piano again!
We got to go all the way up to the UP. If you don't know what that is, it means the Upper Peninsula. If you still don't know what that means, it means the part of Michigan that is only connected to the rest of Michigan by a bridge and is basically it's own country haha! It was a blast. When we were taking an exchange picture of the 4 of us, Elders Hansen, Chapman, Hatch & me somebody said that was such a dad picture sooo we decided that when we are all dad's we will recreate the picture:)
Thanks for all of your prayers and thoughts. Merry Christmas:) "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." - "Que os ha nacido hoy, en la ciudad de David, un Salvador, que es Cristo el Señor." I'm so grateful for our Savior❤
DO GOOD, BE GOOD
