Week 84: Signing Off - September 17, 2019

I can't believe that I had my last video chat with Elder Wright and I didn't take any screenshots. And he didn't send any pictures this week. So I decided to post some of Mom's Favorite Mission Pics with this post.

Hey everyone! If you haven't noticed, today is my last p-day, meaning this is my last email home. It's been a very interesting experience with my mission. Serving at home, coming up here, transferring around the place, but now things are finally at an end. I've really enjoyed being up here, and I know that I will continue to do so here on my last week. I hope you all realize that you've all been great with supporting me while up here, and I just hope you know that. In all, It's been great and I hope you all know how grateful I am for you. I hope you all have a wonderful week and remember to think about all the ways you've been blessed.

Till Then,

Elder Wright

 

Elder Wright also said that he went to the Hail and Farewell dinner where the Family History Missionaries say goodbye to those who will be returning home. He has also been working on the Capstone program which helps missionaries plan for their lives post-mission.

Week 83: Beginning of the End - September 10, 2019

Hey everyone! Things are still going well over here, especially because it's raining over here! I always enjoy it when it rains. Anyways, things are still pretty much the same here. It's not like they lower your workload when you have only two weeks left. The reason why I gave this email the title that it has is because I start Capstone tonight. One thing that this mission does for anyone who is finishing their mission, whether they be Young Elders or Senior Missionaries, is Capstone, which is a class that is suppose to help you with figuring out how to adjust to life after the mission. I don't know exactly what they'll be going over, but I'm fairly sure that it won't be too crazy. Regardless, this class means that I'm really close to the end, but I don't plan to slowing down and not doing anything, because if I do, things will slow to a crawl, and I don't want my final weeks to be like that. I hope you have a wonderful week and remember to pray for those who are suffering from the hurricane.

Elder Wright also told me (Mom) that he went to a dinner to celebrate the mission's work in digitizing The Liahona Newsletter. It was at the home of some of the senior missionaries. He even received a copy of one of The old Liahona Newletters, so he said he has a piece of history!

I found a carton of milk with Nick's return date on it. So close!!!

Week 82: Last Holiday - September 3, 2019

Another happy screenshot from our visit!

Hey everyone, hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend! I didn't do too much, but I still had fun! I got to spend some time with another one of the elders and play games with him, which was an amazing experience, and then that night we had pizza and watched October Sky! It's been a while since I've seen that movie, but I'm glad I got to see it again because it's really good. Other than that, not much is happening here. Transfers were alright, since the only thing that changed for me was the apartment I'm in. Elder Greene (whose birthday is today, BTW), and I are now in a two-man apartment, so that's nice. We also have a new district leader, Elder Dunn, and he's really great. Anyways, I hope you all have an amazing week and remember to always have a prayer in your heart!

Till Then,

Elder Wright
