tapos na...full-time anyways

Hello my dear Friends and Family!

As most of you know, this last week I finished my time as a full-time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

I don't really know how to express my feelings about the last 18 months of my life if I am going to be completely honest.

There really are not any words to begin to explain what I have seen and what I have come to know.

But I can share some of the simple thoughts of my heart.

I love our Savior.

I love our Father in Heaven.

I am grateful for the influence and gift of the Holy Spirit.

I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only Church that has all the necessary ordinances and proper authority that we need in order to fulfill our role in our Father's plan for us.

We are led by a living prophet.

The Book of Mormon and the Bible are the words of God.

Repentance is a gift for everyone made possible through the Infinite sacrifice of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

The Holy Ghost is sent to lead us home.

Our Heavenly Father loves us.

Our Savior loves us.

The work never stops. no matter how old we are, where we are, or who we are, we are called to be the Hands of the Lord. We have a responsibility and obligation to fulfill that calling. When He calls, we say "yes". I have been beyond blessed for doing my best to live by this phrase. You will too. He will magnify or seemingly futile efforts and lift us to highs we cannot ever reach on our own.

stay firm in the faith.

Hurrah for Israel!
