Last email--Well Done

Mom, 

This is the last email I will send you. I feel so humbled to have served my Lord and God for these 2 years. So many people that I love dearly that I will have to leave. I truly have come to know my Savior, Redeemer, my Brother, Jesus Christ in full. I love this work with all my heart. I know I have given everything to Christ in these 2 years. I feel happy and content that God has received my offering to Him. I have grown spiritually. I feel my Saviors love. I can't help but think of my favorite hymn. Come follow me. I may not comprehend everything that he went through when he was on earth. I can not imagine all the things He went through, but now I know a little. 
Love you all. 

For thrones, dominions, kingdoms, pow'rs,
And glory great and bliss are ours,
If we, throughout eternity,
Obey his words, "Come, follow me."

D&C 4: Therefore, ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, 
mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day.

Service

Mother, 

Just want to let you know that I can't believe that my mission is coming to a close. I give thanks to my Heavenly Father for these 2 years to be able to serve him and learn more about the gospel!!! Well this week was a little slow but hey new week to keep working hard. Yesterday we didn't have our Sacrament meeting because the whole country was voting so we didn't really do anything yesterday. 

This week we found a family...wow. They are going through some tough stuff right now... And the guy came to us looking for help which I thought was pretty cool that the dad wanted help, because that normally isn't the case!! But tonight we have a lesson with them so we will see what happens. 

We had a service project that was really cool! We built a roof I have some pictures that you can look at and that was basically the highlight of my week! This week we will be going to the see Elder Rasband! This Friday we will have a little meeting with him and I hope to learn a lot from him! I have last interview with President Erickson the 17 of June and then I will be home!!! 

Love you. Can't wait to see you!!

Elder Spencer
