Hey mom I don’t
really have much to say to you because I’m just gonna tell you all about it
tomorrow, but I will tell you don’t worry about the package! Haha I love you
both a ton and whether I get a package or not, this year has been awesome and I
won’t forget it!
This week I
have been just as busy as you, pulling together some serious events! We pulled
off a pretty good and smooth Christmas banquet and all in all, the week was just
jammed full of things to do! This last Friday we went to Teguc for a big
Christmas party with the missionaries and it was sooo fun! Sister Bowler made
some brownies and they were fantastic!! Haha she kept saying that they were
burned but I honestly loved them!! The party though was awesome; I went
thinking that it was going to be kinda weird because almost all of my mission buddies
have gone home but still I had a ton of fun! All of the zones sang special
numbers and we heard a talk from President Bowler and after all of that we ate
and ate! Then, we ate some more!! Haha I love being a missionary so much
because I can eat whatever I want and if I get fat then it doesn’t even matter!
Haha it’s so much different then what I’d be doing if I was at home right now
;P
Truly though
I have zero worries in the world right now and its amazing! Little by little I
have been discovering new things that I never before knew about myself and it’s
an incredible thing! Waking up one day and looking in the mirror and realizing
that you’re
looking at a
different person than the day before! Coming to know one’s self might be the
greatest and most enriching experience ever and lately I have repeatedly come
to find myself greeting a new me more and more frequently! My vision is clear
and my goals have been falling into line with my perspective and outlook on the
world and now I can see much better and understand what I am here on earth to
do.
Christmas is
an amazing thing and the holiday spirit is a real moving force that makes
people be better than they were! I’m gonna be 20 years old on Monday and that
scares the crap out of me but being here in the mission, filled with the Christmas
spirit I know I’m gonna be able to start off this new decade of my life the
right way!! God is good and
loving and I
know its thanks to Him that I have finally come to know who I am and where I’m
going! I love you to the stars and back and always no matter how old I get I
will always be my 5,8,16, and 19-year-old self. I love you mom and I will
always be your little boy no matter what!
Love,
Elder Jonah McKee
