"People Juice Is a Thing!"

 สวัสดีครับ Hello!

Welcome back to another week in the Washington Seattle Mission. It was certainly one to remember. Why, you ask? Couldn't tell you, I forgot. Just kidding, there's gonna be a whole email after this paragraph. Obviously I'm gonna tell you all about it.

I MET PRESIDENT OAKS

President Dallin H. Oaks, yeah THAT Dallin H. Oaks, came to the mission on Saturday for a mission conference. I got to meet him and his talk was amazing. I have a lot I could talk about but the most important part of it all was just how it felt when he was talking. When he spoke about the Savior, you could just feel his confidence and conviction. It was just a very spiritual event and very testimony strengthening to be able to listen to an apostle of the Lord speak to us. We got there early and ended up sitting front and center in the chapel. It was awesome. Something really cool that he mentioned was that there will be missionary work to do in our mission languages in the spirit world. That was an incredible feeling to know that my efforts to learn Thai weren't just for a 3 month span of my life and nothing else. I definitely need to bust open some of those books I've got on my desk and start studying up again haha.

DESTROYING CHILDREN

I had a missionary coordination meeting at the church building on Wednesday. When we were just about to finish up, someone poked their head in and let us know that some non member kids we had wanted to meet were in there and they were playing dodgeball. Finally all of my elementary training is paying off. We had a good time, and I destroyed some young men in dodgeball. It was the greatest. 😂 Oh and of course I made good friends with those two boys that I've been trying to meet for 3 transfers haha.

LAST THINGS LAST

- Had a long conversation with a member about how people juice is an up and coming alternative to cremation.

- Waffle Crisp cereal is a revelation.

- Regardless you skimmed down to this point of the email or if you're a good person, I still love you!
