My New Favorite Quote:

"All can walk where Jesus walked when, with His words on our lips, His spirit in our hearts, and His teachings in our lives, we journey through mortality. I would hope that we would walk as he walked with confidence in the future, with an abiding faith in His Father, and with a genuine love for others." President Thomas S. Monson

Mission Reunion

We had my mission reunion on Friday and wouldn't you know I forgot my camera. This is the first reunion we've had in about 10 years. Since my mission president died of a brain tumor less than two years into his mission, this reunion meant a lot. Sister Wold has since remarried to a wonderful man that we all got to meet Friday night for the first time. It was so nice to be able to get together with missionaries that I loved to so much and reminisce. We had some unique, wonderful experiences that only those who were there would understand. Even though it's been years since I've served and since we've seen each other, we all have a bond that is unique. I may take a few posts just about my mission because right now, I am feeling nostalgic. I wouldn't be where I'm at right now without my mission. I hope you won't mind me taking you back with me on a mission ride to the events that led up to my mission and some experiences on my mission that changed my life. I feel the need to write them down.

4 now let's hear it from you:
