so its finally come to an end, never thought this day would come to be honest....but it has. looking back on the last 2 years i cant really think of words or how even to describe how great my mission was. to be honest i dont really even know what to say right now in this email. its a whole mix of emotions right now reflecting on it all. i'll just save it for when i get home haha. no but in this last email id like to just thank everyone for all the support, prayers and love during these last 2 years. and especially to you mom and dad for the teaching that you gave me the 19 years leading up to my mission, i am so grateful for the times that i have been able to call upon the teaching i received from you two. 

i can proudly join Nephi in saying that i have been born of goodly parents. i also would like to just end with my testimony. i know that God is our Heavenly Father and that Jesus Christ is our savior and redeemer. i know that he was born into this earth to leave us the road back to the Father, to leave us His priesthood and church, and that most importantly that He atoned for my sins. i know that he bled and died for me. i also know that He resurrected and that He lives. i know that the book of mormon is true. thanks to the book of mormon i have truly been able to understand the atonement and be able to testify his eternal sacrifice. i know that Joseph Smith is a prophet of God. i know that this is the true church. 

in the short span of two years i have been able to witness and bear true testimony that God is a God of miracles and has reached out His hand to His children once again. i have witnessed the true power of the priesthood and i know without a single doubt that this is the true church of God. after the things that i have lived and seen, i would be a hipocrite to deny it. i love you all and again express my great gratitude for all the love and support these last two years. take care, and ill see you all soon.

with much love from mexico,
Elder Maccarthy
