Actually, Zone D-Day is next week.
So thanks for the note! :)
I am extremely jealous about that!!!
You HAVE to take me now! Skydiving... Elder Christofferson... Dance Festival...
everything awesome happens when I'm gone! :( ;)
Things are going really really well!
Elder McPherson and I have been really working hard to become better more
consecrated missionaries. And we've had some success!! Our friendship has been
growing, and we're becoming better teachers and better preachers ha
I got an email from Julie today! She
said that she met you! It's so weird that she's home! I haven't heard from Andrew.
I think he's home too.
You asked about hair cuts and sister
missionary's. I got my hair cut at this
barber shop in downtown Belfast. Quickest hair cut I've ever had! Probably
because I didn't have him do much with it, but even so!
Aside from District Meetings and
Zone stuff, no I don't have much to do with the sisters. But they're bosses! Have you ever heard of Missionary
Goggles?
I also have to tell you, I had this
dream a few nights ago. I was coming home from my mission! But somehow I missed
my plane, so I had to get on a later one. I finally arrived at the house,
opened the front door and shouted "I'm Home!" I walked through and
found you all eating at the dining room table with a pair of missionaries.
Anyhow, to make a long story short, everyone was in bed but, because of the
time difference, I was wide awake, so I was just roaming around the house. You
came down and told me it was really late and I should be going to bed. Then you
started tearing up and said " I'm so glad to see you!" then you gave
me a big hug. I woke up then, and I could still feel the hug. It was distinctly
your hug. And I could hear you saying " I love you Elder Bates." It
was a really amazing experience.
Love,
Elder Bates
PS Claire
asked me about Patch Crowe. He's serving in Belfast. I've played sports with
him several times. He's a cool guy. But now she'll badger me for a picture haha
