Elder Scott Takes on Spokane: Spokane, WA -5-Mile Prarie Ward- Week #104

BEST WAY to spend your last week on a mission!!!! With a baptism. 💓 Logan met sweet little Emily Huck in his VERY first area at the YSA! And now was able to end his mission with Emily as he baptized her his last weekend in the field!! Warms my heart. Love his smile! Pictured here with Emily's best friend MaKayla, her mom Julie, her dad Ken and little sister Katherine STOKER! (Janine Stoker's brother) What a small wonderful world we live in!

I honestly can't believe that this is really happening... I have only seen people come home from their Missions.. I never knew it would ever happen to me!! As of right now I am buckled down ready to take on another transfer, or multiple transfers at that!! Its just so surreal to me to know that this is my last 2 days as a full time Missionary!! I honestly can't believe it! I can tell you all about the week when I see you all on Wednesday!! Highlights from the week though EMILY GOT BAPTIZED!!!! Holy cow it was an awesome service!! What a blessing it was!! What made it cooler was that she asked me to be the one to baptize her!! I was so honored to do that and to be there for it!! Crazy thing was I met her in Pullman at the beginning of my Mission and I got to be the one to baptize her at the end of my Mission! God is amazing and I love the fact he gives us a lot of tender mercies!! It was so awesome!! Well since this is the last email I will be sending from Spokane, Washington I just wanted to leave my testimony.. This has honestly been the greatest experience I have ever done in my life... I know for a fact that this wasn't the easiest thing on the planet its actually been probably the hardest thing I've done... I know that I would not be anywhere near the man I am today without this Mission in my life!! Spokane has truly grown on me!! I love the people here and it is honestly like I am leaving another family up here! Luckily its close enough for me to drive up! WHAT A BLESSING!! I know that Missions are hard but it is the most beneficial thing I have ever done in my life!! I have come to learn out here where my testimony is, what I truly believe, and what my relationship is like with my Father in Heaven. I am so grateful for the things I have learned, and for the blessings and Miracles I have seen here in Spokane, Washington! I know without a shadow of a doubt that Joseph Smith was called to be the prophet to restore the true church of God back on the Earth, I know that Russell M. Nelson is Gods chosen servant and Prophet in this day and age and the world today, I know that God is real and that he truly does direct this work and he does know every single one of us and know us personally! I know he loves us and I know he knows me, I know that The Book of Mormon is true and it is the Word of God!! Joseph Smith once said that he told the Brethren that The Book of Mormon is the most correct book on the Earth today, I know that is a bold claim but I can say with everything in me that it is true! We just can't judge the book by its cover LITERALLY!!! Give it a try read the dang thing and ask the big man if its true! I have done that multiple times and I have gotten the same answer everytime!! I know God answers prayers and he truly does change lives! The Gospel changes lives I have seen it with my own eyes and with people I have served. This Gospel means everything to me and I can't go back to what I was doing before! Thanks for all the support you have all given me these past 2 years! This has not been the best 2 years of my life by any means, its been the best 2 years for my life and exactly what I needed to become better!! Remember to turn to the Lord with Full purpose of heart and serve him with all diligence of mind, if ye do this he will according to his own will and pleasure deliver you out of bondage.. (Mosiah 7:33) That is my favorite scripture and I know he doesn't ask a lot from us! The Gospel is true, the church is true and I know it with everything in me!! I love you all so much thanks again for the support!! I am so lucky for this opportunity! I will forever be changed because of it! I am excited to see all of you in 2 days! Its for sure a bitter sweet moment for me! I love you all so much!! Remember the church is true! The book is blue! Jesus Loves you! ALWAYS pet the Dog, Agnositcs wear grey on grey, Jesus is my friend, remember who you are and what you stand for, God is a God of Miracles, Love your neighbor, Treat others how you would like to be treated, Don't talk to strangers.. but make new friends, Expect Miracles in your life! I love you all!! Peace see you in 2 DAYS!!!!! LOVE YOUUUUUUU!!!

Love,

Elder Logan Scott :)
