The fastest two years of my life

Santigo Mission

Elder Orellana

Hola, everyone! I gave my last talk in the mission on Sunday in Sacrament meeting. It was about missionary work. I didn’t have anything prepared so I just went up with my Book of Mormon and went for it. I have some more lessons to teach this week and a District Meeting and then that’s it. Wow! Time goes by fast. It’s like people always say, it’s the fastest two years of your life. I honestly can say that these two years I have had here have been the fastest two years of my life. I am so glad I decided to come out here and be a missionary. I love being a missionary and I love helping people come unto Christ. I love helping them know that this is the true gospel on this planet. I love helping the people just as Christ did. Here I have seen miracles and experiences I will never forget. I know that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. And through reading the book we can learn how to become more like our Savior as we put the teachings into practice. I know that God has a plan that is perfect that helps families have eternity. I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God and he really did restore the truthfulness of the gospel so we could receive blessings in our lives. I know that Russel M. Nelson is a prophet of God and if we put his councils into practice, we can know for ourselves that he is a prophet of God. I know that I have changed for the better here. Everyone that is thinking about going on a mission should go. It will change your life, like it has changed mine. The mission has helped me see the truthfulness of the gospel.

I love you all, and I am excited to see you!
