I'm coming HOME!!!

Well this week went by really fast for me. It went by slow at times if I thought about going home. It's crazy that this is the last week of my mission. But you know all missionaries have to go home at the end of two years. We weren't able to meet with Angie this week and didn't keep great contact with her either. But come Sunday there she was with her husband on sacrament meeting. That was such a wonderful feeling to me that she knew where she was supposed to be without a friendly reminder. She gave me a hug at the end of church and was pretty sad I was leaving but I told her I would do everything to come back for her baptism! The missionary broadcast meeting last night was a wonderful meeting and it got me teary eyed at a few times because i knew my mission was coming to a close! The lords work is filling this world and there are so many willing young men and women getting ready to serve it just feels my soul with joy! When I came out on my mission there was roughly around 55,000 missionaries around the world and now there is 70,000 plus missionaries! So amazing!! I'm so grateful for the mission I have served and the people's life's I have touched. I know I was called to come to the Texas Dallas Mission for a reason and for that I am so thankful! Watch out Boise cause Dilan's coming home!!

Working hard even up to the last week of my mission

Things have been going really good here. We had a wonderful lesson with our investigator Angie Davis. We talked about the importance of the sacrament and how it goes hand and hand with Baptism. We talked about baptism and she told us that she wanted to be baptized but wanted to wait until her family can be here. She was bummed that i wont be able to make it but i told her i wanted to try to make it if i could. Not too much else has been going on. I have one full week left on the mission and thats why this letter is so short:) 

2 weeks till I return home: It's a LOVE-HATE kinda thing

2 weeks left. things are starting to become a reality with me coming home and all. its a love hate kinda thing. I am getting nervous about the return home.. its a happy nervous though. A lot of missionaries will say that they never want to leave after 2 years but I honestly think thats a joke. In their heart they want to come home. I am gonna miss texas for the people and Thunderstorms.. not for the heat! It hit 102 today which was probably the hottest day this summer so far. We went to Top Golf again. 

Not too much to report on this week. I am almost finished with my Community Service hours which is nice. I was not wanting to be broke when i got home. i hope all is well and 2 weeks is just around the corner:)
