When I first started e-mailing my friends on their missions starting over a year ago I thought it was because they needed that support while they were out serving. And while that's still part of the reason I do it each week, it's become more than that. Each week I hear about their trials, successes, and experiences and my testimony is strengthened. I feel the spirit through the words they type.
I've heard those stories about how missionaries leave and their families were blessed while they served. But I never thought it extended to their friends! Every Monday I'm uplifted by their words and just a little bit more is added to my testimony.
A year ago my testimony wasn't this strong, I wasn't the same person. And I owe part of that to my friends serving missions.
If you're not writing a missionary regularly, you should be. Trust me on this one.
