Ok. So I only have about 10 minutes to do this... therefore I will be brief
So I have been called on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I will be serving in the California Arcadia Mission and I will prepare to teach the gospel in Spanish. (I was REALLY excited about that last part... haha). I cannot believe how blessed I have been. So many wonderful friends and church leaders have inspired me over the years and given me the desire to serve and to become a better person. My YW leaders in particular have been so amazing. By watching the way they truly live the gospel, I came to a greater and deeper understanding of what that phrase truly means. I am grateful for two loving parents who only want the best for me and who have been so supportive of my desire to serve. I am grateful for an AWESOME extended family. I am especially grateful for my cousins who served missions and the examples of faith and love that they have been to me throughout my life. And I am so, SO very grateful for the amazing friends I have made down here at SUU. They have taught me a lot about life and basically showed me how much God loves me. Because He loved me enough to send me a million and 0ne guardian angles in the form of roommates and friends. Especially. Those crazy music majors. What would I do without them? I am a very, VERY lucky girl. <3
