"i know the church is true, without a doubt"

HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!!

family and friends, i just want to say thank you for the support, love, and prayers sent to me and my comps in these last 2 years. its been long but its passed by so fast at the same time, i cant fully understand it but i am so grateful for all the help and comfort you have given me while i have been away. i know the church is true without a doubt and i know that serving a mission was the best decision i have made yet. thanks everyone, love you all so much, see you soon!!!!!

this week has been full of ups and downs but its been a great week and its going to be a great end to my mission. i cant believe that the end has come. its literally impossible to believe. but its here. crazy. 

so fernanda didnt get baptized this saturday. her mom talked her out of it and she deceded to wait for another fecha but we still have cristina who should get baptized on the 10th or the 16th of this month. were hoping for the 10th before i leave!! last week we got a call from the bishops wife telling us that an investigator wanted to get baptized out of nowhere. so we got the phone number of cristina and taught her that same day (tuesday two weeks ago) and put a fecha with her. her husband is a less active and her mother in law has been a member since the 80s and has been praying everyday for cristina to soften her heart and be baptized.

that tuesday cristina woke up and decided that she was going to get baptized. miracles are real. she has come to church with her husband francsico these past 2 weeks and is already committed to live the word of wisdom and is already married!! she is on track to be baptized in the next week or so! after pushing the fechas back with maria and fernanda, the lord blessed us with cristina and she should be baptized with no problems.

questions:

When was the last time you saw President and Sister Warne?  Did you have a testimony meeting with them?  Did they get to say goodbye to all the missionaries? 
i got to see him last tuesday i a final zone conference in rancagua. we had a conference and a final lunch with pres and hermana warne and then the week after president harris got here and we had conferences to meet him on saturday. pres warne told me thanks for my service and that they want to meet up in august when they come down to arizona!

Have you had a chance to meet the Harrises yet?  Where are they from and what was your first impression of them?
like i said we got to meet the harrises on saturday and they are incredible. i feel so much love already and i can tell that they are going to be great here in rancagua. im bummed that i cant stay with them but pres warne was also really great. they are from twin falls idaho.
Do you need us to bring you a jacket?  It's going to be chilly in the mornings in MP. yes please

What are some of the feelings you're having as you're sending your last email to us? i cant explain exactly how i feel, so happy, so sad, feelings of unbelief and shock. its crazy, but im happy to be coming home!

love,
