Well, this will be the last email I ever write as a missionary. I go home in 2 days. This past Saturday we had two baptisms; our friend Michael, and Freddy, who we had taught a few months ago! It was funny because after the second lesson with Freddy, I told my companion we were never going back because I thought he was crazy. The other elders finished teaching him the lessons and here we are now! The little kid Michael gave such a sweet testimony after his baptism, he even made his mom get all teary-eyed.

Ā Ā Ā I also went to the temple with President and all the missionaries that are finishing their missions. I have seen two years of missionaries give their testimonies and go home, I never thought I would get here! The temple was great! It never gets old going to the endowment session and the incredible joy that is felt after.Ā

Ā Ā These past two years have been the hardest two years of my life, but also the best two years! I have finally come to understand why everybody always said that after their missions. I know that the Book of Mormon is true.Ā I know that we have a living prophet, and that this is the only true church on the face of the earth! I have also felt the peace that comes through repentance and hope that everybody else can feel it too. The mission has changed my life. I have learned so much in Colombia. I would just like to thank all of you for support and for helping me on this journey! See yall soon!
