Mission Call















Our resident Aggie, Joe rushed home from Logan on the last day of August to open the much awaited call. It was a BEAUTIFUL day! We were able to round up just a few friends and family to open.... talk about EXCITEMENT!
Grandpa Lowell served as the Mission President in the Philippines Cebu Mission in 1988, and it was divided in 1989. At that point, they moved to Bacolod and presided there until 1991. Imagine his happy smile when Joe opened the call to find out he would be serving in the PHILIPPINES! Commencement: January 19.
Joe couldn't have been happier, can you tell by his expression? A shock! A thrill! Hugs, tears, pizza, what a day! Looking forward to exciting months of preparation ahead...
We are pretty sure Grandma Connie had a wink and a smile of approval from heaven.
