Hey family,
Well this is it! This is my last week! My last real email home! Thanks so much for the emails everyone and letters and packages these 2 years! You cant imagine how much it helps and how good it is!
This last week was okay in the work part. But the temple Dedication of Manuas was just AMAZING! President Uchtdorf did the dedication and Elder Cook was also there! It was such a spiritual experience. Before the dedication started they showing filming of the inside of the temple with the Mormon Tab Choir singing. It was just so peaceful. It made me remember how long it has been. But next week we will go to the Campinas Temple on the way to the airport and it will be just great!
President Uchtdorf talked a lot about our commitment in following the Savior and walking before the Lord with all our heart. He said we must always be worthy to enter the temple and reviewed the temple recommend interview questions. It was just amazing. We saw a part of the cultural celebration as well which was good as well!
This week is looking good. Presidente Prieto gave a fireside here in the stake yesterday and talked a lot about missionary work and how the members can help.
I know that this is the true church. I know that God loves us and that Jesus Christ is our Savior. I am eternally grateful for the oportunity I have had to represent the Lord as a missionary of His restored church. I am eternally indebted. I know that I will miss the mission every day for the rest of my life. I am going to give everything this last week. I am excited and ready to serve and bear testimony of these truths to all, so that they too can know and be blessed.
I love you family so much. Thanks for everything. I should send a quick email to you guys next week! Have a great week, because mine is going to be amazing!
Elder Hawkley
Sorry about the email. We are low on time today. You can drill me when I get home (without complaints from me)! Haha
