Hello there my friends and family! I had a nice long email written for you that was filled with such deep emotion and gratitude for you and all of your work, but it got deleted. Oh well, I guess you'll only get one filled with half the heart because I have half the time:)

October 2, 2017 - Week 111
September 27, 2017 ~ Week 110
Yeah.. sorry my counting got very far off on my subject lines. I did the math this week and realized that it was Week 110 not 102 for this week. Anyways, despite however many weeks I have had on my mission it was still a good one. I don't think that i have had a bad week though, rough moments yes, but none to over power the outlook of my whole week.

September 19, 2017 ~ Week 100
Whoa that's a big number in the subject line. It has been around 100 weeks since I embarked on my mission,although I am fairly sure that that number is off. Anyways whether it was the 100th week or not it matters not because it was a great week! Last P-day we got to tour downtown Helsinki so that was great to do! We made it Suomenlinna (Finland's castle) but it is actually a sea fortress. It is very beautiful full of old cut outs of the hills for places that cannons can be used. It was very pretty as we got to see the beauty of Finland in the fall two with leaves changing colors. Along with our trip to Helsinki we went to some of the famous churches in the downtown and had a great time. A great member here took us all around showed us all the cool places and because of that we accomplished way more than we could have on our own.
September 12, 2017 - Week 99
Sorry I don't here anytime for words but here are some photos!:)
September 5, 2017 - Week 98
Wow, it's come, my 2 year mark will be this Saturday. That means that the fourth quarter has ended and we go to overtime. In sports we somehow always found the energy and drive to play harder and smarter in the extra innings and I hope it can apply here as well. I can't believe how much these past 2 years has helped me in innumerable ways. The hard part is now trying to find specific ways where I have improved. Elder Hales talked in this past general conference about how all the attributes of Jesus Christ are connect and that as you increase in one you also increase in another and another. That is how the mission is too, mainly because we strive daily to develop Christlike attributes but also because every aspect of ourselves rises as we progress. Though we are not perfect and may not always be progressing it is great to take a moment or two and see what has changed from a month ago, a year ago, or even 2 years ago. Despite all this change I probably can not give you a favorite memory or an aspect in which I have developed the most so don't be looking for those answers😀.
August 29, 2017 ~ Week 97
Hey Family and friends, I apologize that this will be a shorter email. My companion and I are trying to make it to the temple today so everything is cut a little short! It is hard to capture all that has happened this week i just a few paragraphs. Just know and take from this email that i know that God is our loving Heavenly Father and that Jesus Christ is our Savior and leads this church. We had a lot of mini miracles this week but I won't be able to elaborated on all of them.
August 22, 2017 ~ Week 96
Hey family and friends a lot happened this week and I don't have all the time in the world so we will see how far I get!
