LETTER ONE!!! LAST TESTIMONY GUYS!!! :D

Well folks this is the last email that I'll be sending out to you.... next week I wont have much time to write and this is my last full week as a full time missionary. Its been an amazing experience. There have been good days and hard days... days where I felt like turning back and days where I couldnt even contain my joy! And as I look back over the past 18 months, I am so grateful for the people I have met and ALL of the experiences I have had. I really have come to know my Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ. I have learned what it means to be a TRUE disciple of Him. It means we are willing (to a small portion) to feel what he felt, love as he loved, pray as he prayed, and be (or try to be) who he was. And folks... I feel closer to Him than I have ever felt before. I walked into the MTC terrified, nervous, and a little doubtful... However, I am coming home with a sure knowledge that HE LIVES. I am coming home with a sure knowledge of who I am and who I can become. These past 18 months havent been the best 18 months of my life... they've been the best 18 months FOR my life... And I have no idea where I would be if I hadnt made the decision to go on a mission.

This week I have also been thinking a lot about clay. Why clay?? haha! because a potter puts the gray lump of clay onto the wheel and molds it into something beautiful... Heavenly Father is the potter and we all have to be willing to be molded... We have to be willing to change and become the person that He knows we can become. Here in Costa Rica, I have seen people change their lives... I have seen the joy that comes when we let Him mold us into better people. I have seen it with the people here, and in myself. I love this Gospel and I love being a missionary... And I cant believe its almost over But I will never forget the experiences I have had here in the best mission ever!! #CostaRicaSanJoseOESTE
