Dad, I hope you have a wonderful
birthday. You're 50 years old my big man!! HAHA wow youre almost old!
But I love dad because really he is just a straight up example. The way
he lives such a moderate, humble life, keeping the most important things
first. He was my bishop in my growing years, and I woulnt have had it
any other way! It amazes me how great of a guy he is, and if I can be
like him one day I will be pretty content. AND i love him for his peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches on hot dog buns.
Wow, that is really hard to hear about Julie... She
was one of my favorite people ever, seriously. First of all, she GAVE
us Murphy, the greatest dog in the whole entire world. She always was so
happy and willing to talk to me about whatever I was doing in life. She
let me hold her baby that one day, I remember, when her baby, Gavin,
was blessed . I sat there and sat there and sat there, ate some good
tacos and had a great conversation with her. I really owe her a lot, and
I will never be able to forget her. My prayers are with you Lanny and
Barbara, you raised her to be a wonderful woman and daughter of God.
They'll all be together again, with Joel and Julie.
But this week was pretty good. Although ZERO people
came to church that we have been teaching, the only thing we do is keep
working like there is not tomorrow. And when tomorrow comes, we do it
once again. I had an exchange with Elder Morales, one of our Zone
Leaders, and it was a pretty good time.
I feel like that week was just too fast, I am not
sure what to tell you guys. We are just working and I really cannot
explain how happy I am. The mission will be the greatest thing I ever
do, and I will never regret one minute. I really can testify of the
things I teach, in the spanish I have learned until now, and it is an
honor and a priviledge to carry 2 names on my plaque. First the name of
Jesus Christ, who I represent and who I love and who I try to follow in
every breath I take. The second is the Murphy name. Although dominicans
only know of Eddie Murphy and laugh because he is black and I am white, I
work to make my mom, dad, grandparents, siblings and all other family
members proud of Elder Dallin Murphy.
Love you all,
Elder Daliln Murphy
