I seriously just LOVE everyone in my mission. I already know it will be so freaking hard for me to leave this place. Its getting a little bit real that i'm actually leaving now that its so close...and it doesn't help that all the ysa bros and elders always roasting me about it haha! Literally ill walk in to district meeting or the ysa ward and they're like "yoooo sister bischoff, how long you got left??" And then they will start counting on their fingers.. "ohhhhh yeah that's right...only 15 days!!! That suckssss!!!" Haha so savage! that's been my life this last couple weeks lol but its all good But really tho, i love everyone here so much! And flippin Hiro leaves back to Japan on Wednesday! I'M SO SAD!!!
So Hiro is doing so good! we had a birthday party for him on sat. and it was so fun! Hes so funny! He is just so good. His testimony of this gospel is so amazing. And Gunnar is so awesome for Hiro! its fun to hear them speak Japanese back and forth during our lessons haha!
Sean...oh my goodness. Sean is AMAZING! i love him so much! yesterday at church we decided to just have a lesson with him so we could get through all the lessons before his baptism, and he just soaks everything up and is so chill with everything! so we asked if he had any questions, and like always he says no, and Sister Huish was like i got a question...and she was like okay Sean...why is this so easy for you? why is it, that when we say you need to pay tithing, and fast, and pay fast offerings, and give up coffee and all of this stuff, that you are so okay with it? and he just said. well, i just know that i was led here. I know that this is where God needs me to be. I know that this is true, so i wont let any of that stuff stop my progression. AHHH HES SO AWESOME!! hes been through A LOT in his life. But that made me think of us as members in our church too... how many things "stop our progression"? like honestly...too many people get offended and leave the church, or they just have things that are set backs for them..which is okay, because we all have those..but we need to understand that this is where God needs us to be, and that we just need to rely on Him when things are hard...and we all have things that we need to give up..it might not be beer or coffee, but it might be pride, or anger, or anything...ya know?? i don't know, just a thought hahah But i'm so excited for him! hes getting baptized on Saturday!!!!
we have been going on a lot of exchanges lately with the sisters in our stewardship! its been fun getting to know them before i go home! They are all so awesome and sweet! man, i know i keep saying it...but i just love everyone here!! the missionaries, members, gators, the crazies...even the mean people that hate us! They are all Gods children and Heavenly Father just knows how precious they are!!! I love you all and cant wait to see you in 15 FREAKING DAYS!!! what the heck????
