Week 103 - Aug 18, 2016
Jacob -
Hello, everyone!
One thing I have to
say about leaving day, the biggest thing I have to take home is the big
blue container with things I have collected over the mission (plus my
clothes and bedding.) I don't know if they will let me take some food
home with me, but bring a cooler just in case! I hope to at least finish
the perishables and leftovers before you come!
I have had a
lot of experiences that have helped me shape my perspective. One is the
injury to my arm. It was a good reminder for me to keep strong in the
gospel. I would like to tell you a bit more about it after I return
home. My arm has gotten a lot better and is basically working just like
it
used to. I just have to focus on not playing sports with it for at least
another month. On the plus side, I don't have to wear a sling anymore!
This
past week I have had the opportunity to attend the monthly temple
session. After it was over I got a hug from President Tate and was
congratulated for all the hard work I put into this mission. I am happy
to know that I am loved and appreciated.
Well, it's hard to
believe that this will be my last mission letter to you guys. I have
learned a lot on this mission, and it gives me a comforting feeling that
I could not have felt elsewhere. I will see you very soon.
Sincerely, the former Elder Derricott
