Elder Garrett Zaugg: YOSO = You Only Serve Once!

How is everything back home? Work? School? The Garden? Boys? Anything? I hope it is all going well!!! And that God is blessing you! I'M 6 MONTHS!!!!!! Any sister missionary that leaves now will get home AFTER me!! That is an exciting thought! Time on mission is running out very fast. Time literally slips away while proselyting. We never have enough time to see all the people we have to see. I wish you could be in a missionaries shoes for one day. When they say mission goes by fast, they aren't lying. I love being in Liberia! I'm breaking my new companion in well. Feeding him all this delicious African food. Its funny because you can tell he's new, he doesn't know how to eat the native cuisine... Theirs a technique to eating rice here. You don't pour all the soup on the rice at once, you take it small small and then do a back and forth motion with your spoon to mix the rice around. I will demonstrate in 18 months, no worries. But he likes to pour the soup and skip out on the whole spoon motion.... Amateurs... (; To answer a few questions from the last email. I use my back pack on pdays, but I don't wear it out because it stains my shirt and I don't like washing that many shirts. So, I stopped wearing it during the week. We haven't had a change for the dress code or anything... what got changed? I don't know if Elder Avornu got his package yet. It would be really cool if you could send them one for Christmas. I think they'd really love it and it'd make their mission. Elder Osayi was so excited to get his. He kept asking me every week if our packages had been sent so he kept looking for it. He loved it! And he loved the personalized Journal to! Speaking of journals... I need one pronto!!!! I'm running out of room haha so maybe you could send 2 if thats alright, then I'll ask for one when I finish the third one. My hair has grown out now so I hope you were able to see how short it was. Couldn't believe thats what the barber gave me haha I have learned not to get specific here. Just close your eyes and pray with faith! It worked this time... He gave me a good one.

I have run out of time and want to send at least one picture home. So I love you all!!!! And if you could send a journal or two, that would be greatly appreciated!

3 Nephi 12:21-24, 34-37
Hope you have a good week. Until next time.
