I'll be home in 2 days...well, actually three days for you!
I can't really believe I'm actually coming home. These past
two years have been the best of my life. Sharing the gospel every day and serving
others 24/7 has blessed me more than I could have ever imagined. It's crazy how it works that serving others blesses our
lives so much, even more than the people we've served. I'm truly grateful that
Heavenly Father found me worthy enough to represent His Son and Church for the
past two years. Leaving this beautiful place and these incredible people is going to be very difficult.
This is Togilau and his baptism went really well. On Sunday he even showed up to
church in a suit and then bore his testimony. He's a really humble guy and we've
been able to get really close to him.
The other photo is from yesterday's fafaga. It was the first time we were able to meet the family
and they had just learned that I will be finishing my mission on Friday. So after dinner, they gave me two ulas
and a fan. Just a perfect example of how loving the people here are, especially to
plagai missionaries...ha! ha! I am going to miss it more than words can express!
Note from mom: We can't believe he's coming home either and are so excited! For anyone that is interested, Justin will be giving his "homecoming talk" and report on his mission this Sunday, August 13 at 11:00am.
Our church building is located at
28291 Alicia Parkway, Laguna Niguel
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThe very next time I read a blog, I hope that it does not disappoint me as much as this particular one.funny new year greetings I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I truly thought you would probably have something useful to say. All I hear is a bunch of crying about something that you could possibly fix if you were not too busy searching for attention.
Thanks
