Life as a Missionary

Wow life as a missionary, it is difficult, but well rewarding.  I strive each day to work hard and go out to serve the Lord!  Sometimes it is difficult to be so far away from home! I have left behind a lot of things...  such as technology, cell phones,video games, TV, Etc...  I am grateful for the wonderful opportunity to be able to email once a week!. Another hard thing I have had to leave behind is my Wonderful Fiancee Amanda N. James! she is the highlight of my Life!!! there are times I just don't know what I would do without Her! I love Her So Much! I always look forward to writing and emailing her each week. She is Amazing! I have also had to give up my Family as well I only get to talk to them once a week via email... it it hard to disconnect yourself from the ones you love and focus only on the Lords Work!. I miss friends and my social life! I know it will all be worth it in the long run! This mission has already bettered me as a person and made me more self disciplined.  I am grateful to be serving the Lord...and doing HIS work!

  2. LOL - Al, as your sister - fix your grammar. Capitalize your "I"s and tell us about that crazy temple you ventured into. It is interesting that you are fishing a lot there too - but you are also becoming a fisherman for souls.... ;)
