"Well. This is it! Still doesnt feel real but im going home! These last two years have been incredible. Everyone asks me "What have you learned in these last 2 years?" My anwser are these 2 things.
37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.
39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
I have gained a testimony of the Lord. I love hime with all my heart, sould, and mind. I know that this is his church. I testify that it was restored through the Prophet Joseph Smith and I know that President Russel M. Nelson is a prophet of God. I know that the Book of Mormon is true. I have seen the changes that other faiths can do to the people. I have seen many people change their lives through other churches. I know that whatever church one joins can change your life. But only the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has the power and authority of God on the earth to do the sacred ordinances that permit us to enter His kingdom.
My second response is the love that I have gained for Gods children. I know that sometimes im not the nicest person. But God has made me an instrument in his hands to better and to love more. It is so important to be nice to the people. Its something I will take with me for the rest of my life. I love the mission. Its the best! I will miss this dusty place. I will miss taking crazy buses and almost dying everyday in them. I will miss all these screaming children next to me playing video games. But Peru has given me something I wouldnt have been able to recieve anywhere else. That is my testimony. Go on a mission! It will bless you forever. I love you all. I know the my Redeemer lives and love me. I share these things with you all in the name of Jesus Christ amen.
Youre all invited to my homecoming Sunday!
See you all next week!!!!!"
