Week 97
its been a great week went bye fast but an awesome week we now have 4 investigators and we are hoping that a couple of them can get baptized before we go home there names are romuldo claudia mario and veronika!! my companion Elder Begley is awesome its sweet being here with him we were companions in the mtc so the other day i asked him hey have i changed since the mtc and i liked what he said haha he said well your personality is the same but now your just like a polished over Elder Tams i liked that alot because i thought of how it is that we can be a polished and better person then we are right now and the only thing that i can say is that its thanks to our Saviour Jesus Christ and the personal determination that each one of us has to be better and to change and do the little things right i was talking with Elder Begley we were talking about the mission and how much we have changed and how happy we are for the way that we have served and because we made the decision to change and be better and keep on going... but we both agreed that we don't feel like we have gotten to the top of the mountain and that we can just lean back and say well i have done it I'm here i know everything i don't need to get better anymore we both said that we feel like we have done great things here but that there is so much more that is left to do and that when we get home it is just the start and we have got to go and give it everything we have and make the decision every day until the glorious day that we can stand before our lord and saviour Jesus Christ! our mission Presidents son and kids came this week to the mission and we had the world conference and President was talking about his kids he said if you guys want to see what happiness is and he pointed to his son and his family and said this is true happiness he told us that at about 6 o clock in the morning he was laying in bed and he heard the footsteps of his 2 grandchildren running to his room that they ran in there got up on his bed and that for a whole hour he had them both on his lap and that he was just listening to them and he told us with tears in his eyes this is the celestial kingdom after the world wide meeting i told his son jared thank you and that i am eternally grateful for his parents that they are great people and have helped me so much he told me your going home in 2 weeks right i was like ya he said good luck its the hardest after the mission when you just got home so i had been thinking alot about that this week but i told him I'm excited i have a good attitude i know its not going to be easy but i know that i can do it and its what i want i have my goals and I'm going to achieve them all that i am thinking lately is the same as President and his joy of seeing his grandchildren after a year of not seeing them my joy that i am going to feel seeing my family i love you guys with all of my heart and I'm so grateful for the family that God has givin me its always in the back of my head our family cheer and IMO so glad that we have it "TEAM TAMS FOREVER NO EMPTY CHAIRS YA!!!!" I'm glad that my parents have taught me what is most important and its a eternal family! and i know that it's not easy if there is anything that i have learned on the mission its that its not easy but if we have a goal and we do of returning to live with our father in heaven then the choices that we make now in our lives every day really do matter and that if we can just learn to get up and go to work that we can achieve any goal that we have in our lives and get to the top of any mountain love you guys thank you for your prayers for me :):)
Con mucho mucho amor Elder Tams 👔❤
