A Window to My World . . .

I am so thankful that I chose to serve a mission and that a loving Heavenly Father had enough faith in me to call me to the wonderful Federated States of Micronesia and then again to Chuuk. Besides missing out on all of the MANY things I have learned from my companions, senior couples, and the Chuukese people, I would have missed all of this beauty! SO glad I came and didn't miss it . . .

Thinking Ahead . . . Even Though I'm Not Ready . . .

June 3, 2014


Dear Mom,
Elder McEwan & Elder Johnson

For the college information, GO to byu idaho first, then uvu and usu. Look up...fall semester, then please start asking Brad when the earliest is that I can recertify with him for guarding and also Steve about doing pest control. Now the whole military thing...I haven't decided on anything yet, but I would like some info on other stuff that could help with college funds and all that. SOrry I didn't tell you on Mothers Day!! :) It's hard to think about stuff after the mission because I love being a missionary and I love it here so much!!!

Love you!
Elder McEwan
Last Zone Conference with
President and Sister Mecham

P.S. Please also, if you can, please send my Dwyane Wades with the Obray's (the white ones), along with a flash drive that I would like you to fill with all the P90X and Insanity DVDs (if it's possible, if not, just send me all of my Insanity DVDS) along with a new workout band. Hopefully that's not too much to ask, but I just remembered all that stuff. If it is possible for the Obray's to bring that out, great. Also, don't MAIL anything for a little while (ie letters, boxes, packages, etc. just because this transfer is almost upand I don't know where in Micronesia I will be.....)

Happy Mother's Day . . .

May 11, 2014
What a wonderful Mother's Day! We had 45 minutes of
wonderful sound and picture.

Hey there everyone!!

Happy Mother's Day, Mom! So, pretty glad that I got to talk with all of you guys today, along with Stefani. I forgot to ask one thing. Mom and Dad, if you guys could start looking at registration dates for colleges and also see about military opportunities. Just see if you can't get some information, just so that we can kind of be thinking about that stuff so that I'm not late or anything.

Well, things are good. That's really all I wanted to say. I'm glad that you guys all look great, and I love and miss you all!! Please know that no matter what, I know that this Church is true, and that it is our responsiblity to help further this work on the Earth.

Also, all the people of Sopwata say hello and Happy Mother's Day, and my cute little sister, Javyanne, says hi and that she loves you all (she's super cute, 4 years old).

Love to all,
Elder McEwan

This is one of the guys that took care of Elder McEwan
when he was in Guam for surgery last August. He was visiting
Chuuk for the week and wanted to "meet" the family :).

My New Home is Paata . . .

May 5, 2014


Hmmm . . . Wonder what my momma would say?!
Hello!

Hahaha, I freaking love Maverik, but that's still awesome that we won!! :) Has he decided if he wants to serve a mission?


Beautiful Chuuk Sunset
How'd the module launch go?

The garden looks good! Although mine is a little bigger!! ;) hahaha

Elder Obray was jacked to see Elders Wessel and Jorgensen, that's sweet taht they are both heading out.

Elder Ladore is doing fine, sorry I haven't been able to let you guys know that I'm in Paata, but yeah I'm in Paata, and the District Leader of the best district in the world, Fai-Chuuk district. Investigators are sometimes many, sometimes few and far between just because the church is so new out in Paata, but we're working on that and trying to build up some work :).


Absolutely love my Chuukese brothers!
I love you all so much!

Love,
Elder McEwan
