Well, this is it, to anyone reading out there.
The
last post as Carson Teuscher, for two years at least.
From here on out I will be referred to as Elder Teuscher, by choice mind you, because I want to go somewhere and render my services to the Lord on an all out mission to help those around me become happy like I am.
This last weekend at home has been fabulous! The feelings of being with family is so amazing. I am glad that everyone was here, the way that things have worked out. Happy with the talk that I gave in church on Sunday. Happy with where I am going. Funny how things always,
ALWAYS work out the way that they need to, for your own progression.
In two years, I will be a better person than I am now. Of that I am certain. And not just because I will speak Portuguese, but because the experiences I have over that time period will graft me into a better individual. Countless missionaries have gone before me, even more will go after me. But this is MY mission! I've waited 19 years to go, and it makes me so excited to think that starting Wednesday I will be off on that adventure.
Thanks Mom & Dad. I owe it all to you.
Thanks Gitta, Gem Gem, and Tiana. You are my favorite people on the entire planet.
Thanks to other family members, whose unyielding support makes life go on.
Thanks friends, to whom I owe so much and wish I could repay you for such great times.
Thanks most of all to a loving Father in Heaven.
Ribeirao Preto, here I come.
Here are some pictures of last weekend.
The epitome of fun: 75 foot slip'n slide and dish soap.
The epitome of silly! My sisters!
The epitome of beauty, Haystack rock on Canon beach, Oregon.
The epitome of youth :) My Dad and Nana!
The epitome of...tent.
I finally fulfilled my summer goal of building an awesome sand castle!
Haha this picture is hilarious considering that fact that Gemma's shirt accurately reflects real life! I indeed truly only have one day more before my mission!! Haha :)
Elder Lim! I will miss you.
Note to everyone. My parents and older sister will probably make a mission site for me, like my buddy Tripper's.
www.missionsite.net/eldertripperfrost
It will most likely be that, except with my name in the URL.
Have a great 2 years :) Keep in touch!
