Second to Last
Well…for those of you who haven’t recieved an e-mail for a while (usually I only include the family and a few friends in the email), I am finishing up the mission here in Chapel Hill, NC. I only have 1 week left…am scheduled to return June 20th. I’ve already had a great day today as me and Elder Warnick actually went golfing with a member. It was one of the coolest things that I have done on P-day (the other one was taking a tour of the RBC center in Raleigh). We went to this one place called the Preserve at Jordan Lake….it is a 18-holer designed by golfer Davis Love. It was very nice…we got a super good deal, and I was way rusty (not having golfed in 3 years!) It was by far the toughest course I have ever played and even though I played horrible, I still had a blast. Elder Warnick is way good as was also the member (I came in a distant 3rd place).
Well, the mission has went very well, I haved loved it so far…too bad it’s coming to an end (but I guess it had to sometime!). I have had good success in all of my areas (Cary, Raleigh, Wilson, Henderson and know Chapel Hill). I have had baptisms in all of my areas and it appears most of the converts are still doing good, some are still struggling, but I hope they are strengthend. In my short time here in Chapel Hill (only 5 weeks so far), we haven’t had a baptism, but we opened the area and have a strong investigator, Mario, who came to church again and has already read 1st Nephi. He is way cool and smart and really enjoys the church so far. There are a couple more, Gilberto and Wendy, a couple from Guatamala, who are very excited (Gilberto’s sister is a member there), so we have high hopes for them. The members here are great…I have scheduled some sweet dinners for the next week and I know this next week will be great…hopefully the best of my mission!
Thank you everyone for you support and I hope to see you soon!
Love ya,
Elder Hardy
