I Got Flight Plans!!!!!

So I just got my flight plans just now!!! I fly out on Friday in the morning, but I get to call you tonight for like 5 min. I am going to call at 8:15-ish so I will just call your cell phone. Please answer it! Haha, but ya so I leave Salt Lake at 6 am and get to Dallas 9:35. Then I fly out at 12:15 and get to Mexico at 2:45!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I fly American Airlines! I love you all so much. Thank you all so much for all your prayers. This is such an answer to my prayers!! I am so excited and ready to get to Mexico. It's going to be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!! So today was good! I went to the temple got to eat real food. It was so great. Then we did sealings and that was amazing. I love the temple so much! So I have been reading the Ensign. Yes, me reading! Haha, don't fall over Haha. But it has really good stories this month. I liked them a lot. Also at our Sunday night fireside, we had these 3 composers talk to us. They all wrote hymns like Press Forward Saints and Families Can Be Together Forever and others. So that was cool to hear them speak! One was like 88 and went 30 min over his time. Haha, it was great. I love old people. They are awesome! So I saw Lucas Bodine! He came in last Wed. and I have seen him a few times, along with others from my high school! So I'm so happy to finally be leaving. I love the MTC but I am very ready to get to Mexico! So we have a devotional in a few minutes and I heard that it is Robert D Hales, so ya that should be great. If it is him, then that will be our fourth apostle since getting here. Haha so ya, nothing else big happened. I am just super pumped to go to Mexico. I bet you can't tell haha! I love you all so much. Thank you for all that you do and thank you for all your prayers! Prayers really are answered. I have seen that here a lot and I know that God knows us all personally and is there to help us at any moment, we just have to ask! I'm so grateful for this gospel in my life! I'm so grateful that I have such great parents, that I had the opportunity to grow up in this great church and to be taught so well about the gospel. All that you have taught me has really helped me here in the MTC! I love you so much! Thank you for everything! So please answer when I call tonight!! Haha, I hope you get this before I call that way you will know that I am calling! I love you all so much and I miss you all so much! So Elder Fotu in my district and Elder Toone, they are getting reassigned because they still haven't got their Visas. I don't know where, but they found out today that they were getting reassigned. I am just really grateful that I am getting to go to Mexico!!! I have learned so much here in the MTC! It has been really great but I am very ready to get out there and be able to share this wonderful message with all the people of Mexico that are waiting to hear it! I know that the Lord will bless me and help me to find those who are ready to hear this great message! I know that my Spanish is not very good but I know that with the Lords help I will be able to share the gospel. I know He will bless me as long as I work my hardest and put my self in the position to serve Him! I am an instrument in His hands and I know as long as I am doing what is right that He will be able to use me to bring people closer to Christ! I know that I have come closer to Christ here at the MTC and I can feel myself coming closer to Him every day! I love the Book of Mormon! I have a testimony that it is the word of God and I know that every time that I read it that my testimony is strengthened. I know that anyone that will read it with real intent will also come to know that it is true! It is truly the word of God! Through reading and praying we can all know what we need to be doing and find answers to all of our questions. There is no greater book on this earth then the Book of Mormon. It is amazing! I know that Christ is my Savior and that He did suffer for me and each one of us personally! I know that He knows us and has gone through what we are going through and if we turn to Him, He can help us through anything! This church is true! This work is real and I love it very much! I love you all so much. Again, thank you for everything you do and for all your letters and prayers. They really do make a difference! I miss you all but I love you!

Love,
Elder Despain
