DAY 13

Maria liang has recently returned from her mission in Brisbane the best mission ever and so I was fortunate to go and listen tom her powerful testimony of service and her mission stories. She was amazing and just eloquent and powerful. It's amazing tom see missionaries when they come home and the fire that is still inside. It's a fun feeling.

Oh background we are at the Draper suburb at the church meetinghouse that Maria goes to and Kelli, and Beatrice are there along with me and a few hundred other people I have no idea who they are. Ha funny.

Kelli and I stay for the whole 3 hours of church and well i learnt some things about the letters of Paul in the bible. Pretty neat stuff.

We then get chocolate in relief society which is just for women to get homely ideas and talk about their husbands hahaha it's true.

We then left and headed to Marias house where we enjoyed the simple pleasures of a spread of food. Well I ate and there was plenty left soi didn't feel to bad. Haha kidding. W had fun I made a new friend who is Garrett and will never see him again. Love it but hey he's cool and is besties with Maria! Love her!!

We part beig the last time in a long time till we see each other. Us being Kelli and Maria. Sad but we will meet again. So I head off to my last 3 temples in the area. Draper, South Jordan and Oquirr Mountian. All three are beautiful in theirown ways. The views are always spectacular and the blessings that can come from the temple reach far beyond what we can achieve on this earth. I love temples.

Well The rest of the day I just hang out at home and get a text from good old Elder Durfee who served in Australia in Tasmania for a while so I went and said hello to him. I was weird and it was cool to see someone who you knew such a long time ago. Missions bring people together. I left him with a packet of Tim Tams and parted not without a Kodak moment.

I went home and slept. Good times but go explore the treasures,of your suburb and do something crazy with your life!
