Our Missionary

Last October, President Thomas S. Monson announced that the age for full-time missionaries had been lowered to 18 for young men and 19 for young women. It was an incredible announcement for the church! And it just so happens that my nephew is going to turn 18 in June, right after he graduates from high school. I didn't realize the impact it would have on our family -- what a blessing! He is such an amazing example to his 7 younger siblings and 23 cousins by making the sacrifice to go. He got his mission call just a few weeks ago.

WE LOVE THIS BOY!

We'll all miss you so much. But we know you will be off doing a marvelous work and a wonder in Montevideo, Uruguay!

“The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done.” - Joseph Smith
