Well, time is flying by on the mission. I hit my 11 month mark today, and soon it will be a year, and then it's downhill from there. I almost can't believe it. I feel like I arrived in Brazil yesterday, and then I look at the calendar and can hardly believe it is August of 2013. If I was still at BYU, I'd be graduating the end of this winter! How crazy to think about! wow. But, all in the time of the Lord. He really does always know what is best.
It's about every day now that I wake up and can't believe that I once was a simple young man, studying in my little bubble at BYU. I feel like I am almost not the same person anymore, how much I feel like I have changed. I wake up and I am in Brazil, and I am speaking Portuguese and preaching the gospel and it is all completely normal. haha sometimes I just laugh thinking about it. But it is so great :)
Well time is running short, I just wanted to let you all know that life is great and that I am very happy. I feel Heavenly Father pushing me and helping me grow, and though I have to stay focused and have a lot of faith to have the courage and strength to keep going every minute of every day, I know that with His help I will be able to. I am so glad to be a missionary.
I love you all so much! Take care of yourselves!
All the best,
Elder VIglione
