This is Justin's last email. He leaves South Africa this Tuesday

Hey
mom and dad
Ha-ha man I don’t know what’s wrong with me but I’m like almost in tears. I had my final interview with the President yesterday and it went really well he basically said everything you guys were saying. I’m going to miss Africa so much. I’m going to miss the people and being a full time missionary more than I thought I would. Over the past few days it’s been a strange test of emotions. I talked to president about it yesterday and he told me it was pretty normal, just the feelings of being excited yet all of sudden coming to realize that this is it. I will probably never see a lot of these people ever again. It’s coming to me quite strong now. I’m so excited to see all of you but hopefully I’m not too big of wreck. I love all of you very much and I hope I’ll be able to make something out of myself when I get back home. If I start being lazy please just beat me. Thanks for both of your supports threw out my whole mission. I’m really spoiled I think, but I’m also grateful.
I was actually with sister masters yesterday for dinner and she said she is sending emails to her but there is no response. She is using the right email as well and has not gotten any emails from Carole. Sister Masters is a great lady but she lacks a lot of confidence. She was telling me last night she really does not want to be a burden on anyone. I tried to comfort her. Something else you should know is that she got her temple recommend on Sunday and her patriarchal blessing the Sunday before that. She has come very far. When I met her she was very less active and far from god. It’s a miracle at where she is now. She has never been threw the temple so this will be an amazing experience for her. So I don’t know I just thought I would let you know all that. But love you all again I will see you in a little bit. Take care.
Love, Elder Justin Brey
