Xinan #93

Dear Family, There is a new companion here! Elder Stewart from Washington State :) He's a wonderful missionary and is going to do a great job here helping President Day until the new mission president comes in July. This week I was sick with a pretty mean cold. It was the first time that I had ever had to go back and sleep because I was so sick, but it was only for an hour before we had splits with members to teach a potential investigator later in the evening. Hahah, Elder Shelton (Mission Recorder) had a theory that it's because of a drop in the stress levels.... (the day prior, Elder Stewart came into the office, at which time I gave him all the keys that I had)... :P I have to be completely honest. I love it here and I love the people here, and I am so grateful for the things that I have learned here, but I am super excited to see you all. I am going to miss it here. Miss the food, miss the weather, miss the Amas and all the cute little asian babies, but the greatest thing that I'll miss is the people. Just as Joseph said, People are Important. I'm going to miss wearing the name of Christ on my chest, and testifying of the Savior's love, and our Father in Heaven to these, my beloved brothers and sisters. I am so grateful for the Savior and His love. I'm grateful for the Book of Mormon, and the converting power that it has in people's lives to turn them to the Savior, and by the Spirit how we are to repent, and how to draw closer to our Father through Him. I Know that He lives. HURRAH FOR ISRAEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll see you next week. Love, Elder Westover
My last Mission Leadership Council... We did a training on the Book of Mormon, and Oreos... :)  Super yummy ;)
