Dear Family,
Well transfers came and Ill got Transferred again,
back to Necochea but to a different Branch. I'm with an Elder named Elder Porter
Hansen from L.A. California, I have two or more pictures with him. Its funny
because we are both the same size and height. Hes just the skinner form haha.
Its the funniest when we are walking in the streets and all the people are
staring us down because its two HUGE Blond guys walking very fast with dressed
up in white shirts and ties. Everyone looks at us, but we just laugh because we
have never had companions our same size. He is a great guy and has a Energy and
desire for the Mission Work that is awesome. He helps me a lot with focusing me
in the work and having fun, and we have only had 1 day together, and two weeks
back 4 days of exchanges. WE are going to see and make Miracle happen.
Not much happened this last week in my last area....
I have seen both types of Missionaries, The obedient
and the not so much. (Morgan knows what I'm talking about) I have never been a
Robot type obedient and i never was the other type, but I AM ME! I am trying to
be the best Missionary that I can be, and with the Atonement it makes up for the
rest. I have grown to have testimony of the Atonement, it has grown so much in
the mission and i am eternally grateful for the opportunities that i am having
here in MY Mission. I know that my mission is hard and that i have had many
people tell me the it is one of the Hardest missions in the South America, with
one of the most Strict President, but when i have finished my time I will be
that Diamond that I talked about in my Farewell talk. I have came to find that
My Mission will do one of two things to the Missionaries, It will either
Break them, and they will return home the same people who didn't learn anything
and just stuck out the time, OR it will MAKE you, MY Mission make Boys into Men,
if we let it happen. To many times we take this for granted.
I will not let the mission Break me, but i will definitely let the Extreme Pressure and Extreme Heat and the hard hits that
come, help Make me into the Man that God know i can become. The process of My
Misson is the same process of making a piece coal into Diamond through Extreme
Heat and Extreme Pressure and a long period of time, My Mission is Making me a
very large piece of Coal into A Diamond through the same Extreme Heat and
Pressure, but the difference is the Time. I only have Two Years to develop and
getting the ending Result. My Mission is Extreme!!
I understand that this sounds a little Prideful and
blunt about My Mission, but its not Pride if its the Truth and Fact! ;)
I have the best time of my life to become a better man
in this time that i have, I am so thankful to my Father in Heaven for the
chance that i have to be a Missionary, and to wear his name on my chest. I know
that the Church is true, and i know that Jesus Christ Lives and answers our
prayers.
Thank you to all of you for your support and love!
I love you all so much!!
Con Amor su siervo fiel, amigo, oso(osito), hijo,
Elder Ethan C. Durocher!!
