had to share from the email to his parents..

We asked Elder Porter at this point in your mission do you feel it has been fulfilling for you? Or beneficial to you? I had to share his response...
"My mission has been nothing but fulfilling and beneficial. In every aspect of it I have done nothing but grown: in my testimony, in my social skills, being independent, budgeting, relating to others, service, knowledge of different cultures/bigger picture of the world, being a leader, choosing to live a Christ like life, and understanding the atonement. Just to name a very few these are some ways I have grown. 'This is truly 2 years God has given us to serve him, not 2 years we give to serve God' (paraphrased from elder Spanbauer) but it is so true. Nothing more beneficial, nothing more fulfilling than literally being a representative of Jesus Christ doing and saying what he himself would do if he were here. Nothing better... truly the best 2 years.
