Elder Donaldson and last companion (who is a stud) Elder Maravi from Peru! |
Elder Donaldson has been sharing most of his experiences and adventures via voice recordings the past few months. It's exhilarating to hear his voice, and we chuckle at his accent. Here are the a summary of his pictures and happenings over this summer 2018. He has loved his areas, his companions and the Colombian people. He's a little thinner, a little less hair on top, but trade off for deep abiding testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ and His gospel. Working hard. 3 more weeks!

I've learned so many things on the mission and I'm excited to share and talk in detail when I get home. One thing I've felt and wished and worked towards as a missionary is to just genuinely love everyone. We meet all sorts of people day in day out. It's my desire to love them as Christ would love them. Most of these souls are very good people, but it's sad the view they have of religious people, and even sadder in some
cases their perspective is true. My belief is just treat everyone the
same, love them, help them feel the Savior's love and stop labeling people as gay, less active, drunks, or whatever
they are, and just treat them the same. The atonement is for all and it works and is real.
Also I got Colombia Jerseys for the whole fam so we can take a cool
family pic when I get back!
Love you all lots. Thanks for everything!
Elder Donaldson
