Encouraging Words

A few special thoughts and words of encouragement to a missionary from those who love him. If you would like to add something, please use the Contact Us page to record your thoughts.

You are an example to my family and I of selfless sacrifice and unconditional love. Your passion for service has always been evident and all those you serve are blessed to experience a glimpse of the love our Savior has for them. I am proud of you and my life has been greatly blessed through your service, testimony, and the friendships I’ve gained from those you’ve taught. This journey is one that will testify to you that through the good and the bad the Lord is aware of you, has a plan for you, and loves you. Enjoy the journey!

I love you,

Mallorie

It is amazing to see the light of the gospel shine through your eyes. You really are a beacon of Christ’s love and an amazing example of the joy and happiness the gospel can bring. Others will see this light and example and be drawn to you. You have and will touch so many lives in ways you do not know. So proud of you and love you!

One of my best memories was the day(s) [4/30/2016 & 5/24/2016] we were all together in the temple. What a joy it was to see all my children dressed in white together in the celestial room. Another would be as we sat in the temple president’s office and spoke with President LeSueur. It was a spiritual and humbling experience. Remember the peace the temple brings.

You’re the greatest little brother a girl could ask for. I think we have far too many memories. This couldn’t suffice. Love you so much! I am going to miss you. But I am so proud of you and all that you’ve become. I’m your biggest fan and best friend.

“Your partner in crime”

I have so many memories I can’t just pick one. I’m going to miss all our fun times. You always did know how to make me laugh uncontrollably. You are going to be one A-MAZING missionary. I’m so proud of you. Always remember I support you 100% and love you with all my heart! You’re gonna change lives. I love you! Will miss you SO much!

Your smile lights up every room you enter. You have been preparing for this moment your whole life. You just have to take the first step and be confident. You are the answer to someone’s prayers you just have to be prepared to answer their questions. We will miss you every moment you are gone but even though we aren’t with you we are still there for you.
