It is P day! I am going to be completely honest, the second day was way tougher than the first. The first day you just have no idea what is going on and you're excited for the challenge but when you wake up that next day you realize that you actually aren't going home for two years and it's rough. But I made it through and I made it to P day! I was totally exhausted after yesterday. I slept super well so that's good!
My companion is Elder Henrie. He is from northern Idaho. He is also going to my mission! He is 20 years old. Almost 21. The two other Elders in my room are Elder Millward and Elder Wixom. They are both from Utah. I get along with all of them really well! Elder Henrie and I have been assigned to be zone leaders... So that'll be interesting! I feel pretty inadequate but I know that we can do it if we trust in the Lord.
There's about 16 people in my district. Half of us are going to Columbus, Ohio and the other half is going to Nampa, Idaho. In my branch we have people going to lots of places. There's a sister going to Portland, Oregon and she said she'll be serving in the temple visitor's center! So that's cool! There's another Elder in my branch that is from Hillsboro and he is also going to Columbus!
The first two days have been pretty good. I am allowed to read emails any day but just can only respond on P day. So if you want to email more than just once a week I would like that! I love you so much Mom! Thank you for everything. I'll email again next week! Oh and thank you for the letter in my suitcase! I love you!
Love,
Elder Collier
