Week 102: Something Wicked This Way Comes

Image
So here we are. The last one. The final email.  I know all of you were expecting this next Wednesday. It's a long story, one I'll tell you in person soon enough. In the words of an original Disney Channel movie song, "oh, things change when you least expect them too" (bonus points for anyone that can tell me the name of the song). But really, you're not here for logistics. You're here for upliftment, excitement, entertainment and hopefully enjoyment, right? We shall see with the time provided what I can bring into your lives one last time as I write to you all under call of God from the land where that call has been manifested.  First and foremost, God lives.  Second, Jesus Christ is His Son, the Saviour and Redeemer who atoned for all humankind and through whom salvation cometh. Their divine love for us in incomparable in depth, breadth, and purity.  Third, The Book of Mormon is the word of God, and, linking arms with the Bible sets for...

Week 61: "I'll be frank with you"

Image
o, in full disclosure, I have gone through my inbox and have been deleting things to make space for photos in Google photos and may have accidentally deleted old emails that I meant to respond to.

Saying Goodbye

Image
Saying goodbye is terribly difficult. I have cried many times already and I imagine I shall cry many times more before I make it to England. In my church, you talk about serving a mission your whole life but you don't really truly talk about it. It occupies space in your mental plans for the future, but that space is filled with uncertainty. No one talks about how difficult it is to leave. And it is difficult. But, I would not be doing it if I did not believe what I do. I love my family. I love my friends. I am so grateful for your support leading up to this moment. I ask you now to continue supporting me. There are two ways you can do this. First, shoot me an email every now and then. I love keeping up with your lives and hearing what's going on. Second, watch out for my family. They are strong people but we have been through a lot, and knowing that I am not leaving them high and dry but instead encircled in the arms of trusted friends gives me great comfort. I love my Savio...
