🎲❤️ Viva Las Vegas ❤️🎲

Hey everyone!!

Happy last email! This week was probably the happiest and saddest week of my mission, but I'm so grateful for every second of it.

This week was filled with a lot of goodbyes and final things, but it made me realize how much I've genuinely loved my mission and how much of a blessing it's been for me. On Sunday we went to my last night church and it was just the most bittersweet moment of my whole life. A lot of all my favorite members and friends came to say goodbye, which was so cute of them, and then it was also testimony meeting. I got to play the piano one last time for my favorite meeting of my whole mission (spanish night church, duh) and so as I was sitting up on the stand, I was just looking out at everyone. There were past leaders, recent converts, friends, my favorite members, companions, just all the people I've met and loved for the past 18 months.

For those of you who don't know, I was not happy to be called to Las Vegas. Pretty much the furthest opposite of happy that you can think of (not proud of that.) But after saying goodbyes this week, seeing all these people I've met and loved, spending hours at the churches that have become my favorite places in Las Vegas, and being able to just talk to everybody and teach them about Jesus Christ and the Book of Mormon, I have never loved a place more or been sadder to leave somewhere.

My mission has completely changed my life. I can't even begin to imagine where I would be right now if I hadn't decided to serve, and I'm so grateful I never have to find out. I have learned and grown so much, but the most important change has been my testimony of this church and of Jesus Christ. I know this is His true church on the earth and that it was restored through the prophet Joseph Smith. I know that the Book of Mormon was translated by the power of the Holy Ghost. I know that God has put His priesthood power back on the earth today and that through it, we can draw closer to Him and Jesus Christ through covenants. I know that Heavenly Father loves each one of us individually and will never stop loving us. 

Above all, I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior. He came to this earth to save us because He loves us, and it's because of that love that we are able to find hope and joy each and every day. It's because of that love and knowledge that I've been able to find hope and joy on my mission, even during the hardest times. I'm so grateful for this opportunity I've had these past 18 months, and even though I'm probably dehydrated from the amount of crying I've done this week, I don't think I've ever been happier in my life than I was this week as I relived my very favorite memories and moments with the people I love. Viva Las Vegas para siempre. 🫶

Love you all and can't wait to see you so soon!!
