Hasta la vista Juarez


Hola todos!!!

This week was good and incredibly difficult. We worked hard, taught lessons, had 2 exchanges, had people come to church, almost set a baptismal date (he said he wants to get baptized but doesn't feel ready quite yet). It has been awesome for all of those reasons. 


It was incredibly difficult because I had to say goodbye to my Juarez family. I am going to miss it so much. I cannot believe or even begin to process the idea that I am going home. That tomorrow I will not be leaving the house at 11, I will not be teaching, will not be contacting nor trying to help the members here. This has become my life. It has become who I am. I understand that everything has its time and its season, but I will incredibly miss being able to do nothing more than His work. 

goodbyes...
In my time here in Juarez my Father gave to me...
6 great companions
5 pounds or more
4 new parents
3 areas
2 languages and
1 new and improved version of me

I am so incredibly grateful for all that I have learned and become here in the mission. It was the best decision that I have made in my life. 

See you all in two days!
