This year has been one of the best ones in my life for personal development. I have had many chances to grow in knowledge, skills, and spirituality. I have had a lot of opportunity to learn more about what a mission is really all about. Everyday i learn more about just how perfectly Heavenly Father put his plan together. Each day I ahve chances to teach the peple about Christ and his plan. I am also able to see people make changes in their lives that really do help. I watched as one of our investigators, Yamashita, gave up some of the things she did not need and made a true change. She had a change of heart. I can only watch and experience all of this because of my mission. but in all reality it is not just my mission, it is a calling that I have received from the Lord. he is also helping me. I t is wonderful to think of the love that Jesus Christ has for all of our Heavenly Father's children. Because of Christ, we can all return to our Heavely Father. I am thankful for the opportunity to share this good news on my mission and the rest of my life to watch and help people learn about their porpose in life and make the change of heart they need. One thing I love to see is the faces of people as they look up from their first prayer. The first time you call upon Heavenly Father is often very hard. But to see their faces when they are touched by the spirit is something beautiful and undescribable. Through heavenly Father's plan I can continue to grow and develop until I am a lot closer to the person that I really want to be. This year has been great. Thank you for all of the support and prayers. 1997 Newsletter Eagle Pictures Mission Pictures |
