I'M GOING BACK ON MY MISSION

So the title of this post pretty much says it all.  But I have to say that I am so thankful for this time I have had at home.  When I first figured out that I needed to come home to get everything taken care of I was falling apart.  I couldn't stand the thought of leaving my mission and coming home.  It seemed like a bad thing.  But while I was still a missionary I realized it could be a huge blessing and help me grow in ways that I couldn't on the mission.  I am so grateful I came home with that attitude.  It has saved me and helped me to be ready to go back.  I am grateful for the opportunity I have had to be home and to learn and grow.  As I have said multiple times, this has been a blessing in disguise.  

I am grateful for my family and the huge support they have been and always will be for me.  They have helped me get to this point.  I couldn't do all of this without them.  I am grateful for the many opportunities I had to go to the temple and to serve with the Sisters in my ward and in the Primary of my ward!!  That has been such a great joy to me, getting to hang out with those kids helped me a lot!!  I am thankful for my dear friend Colton Bell!!  Sister Bell is my best friend and helped me remain positive while being here at home.  And she always let me hang out with her and her family.  I love that family a ton!! :)  

I hope that the experiences that I have had here at home will help me become a better servant of the Lord.  I hope that I can be a better instrument in His hands and bring the gospel to many more lives.  I love my mission, I definitely don't consider this time at home a break from my mission.  It is a part of it.  Being here wasn't always very easy.  But that is just like being on a mission!  I am so excited to go back to California (I'm thankful for the wonderful timing as well...it has been freezing here today!!).  

I know that Heavenly Father has a very specific plan for all of us, and I know this has been a part of His plan for me.  If I could choose to take this experience away and stay out there, I wouldn't.  Because I needed this.  And I just know it was the will of God.  I know that He now wants me back in California.  I can't wait to be back in the Great California Ventura Mission again.  I know I have amazing leaders and missionaries there that will be great support to me out there.  It will be awesome to work with everyone again.  

Mom will post my emails here just like before!!

  1. Awe! I just got a chance to read this today after you are probably boarding your plane now! I definitely see the time you were home to be a huge blessing to me and to my family. And of course to our primary too! :) We are going to miss you on all levels! My girls look up to you in so many ways and I know that's how they get some of their courage to share the Gospel with those around them! Best of luck to you and we will see you soon! Love the Bell Family!
