Jason got his mission call on Tuesday the 14th. We had a small impromptu gathering for the occasion. Bishop Poulsen, Danielle, Ethan, Marissa, Kylin, Grandma Fondren (by phone), Garth and I watched with great anticipation as he opened the envelope.
He conveniently leaves out the name of his mission as he reads it the first time (thus the big grin). NOW for the big announcement...... where to?!?!?Mesa Arizona Mission- English speaking
He enters the MTC on the 7th of January.
He is so excited to share the gospel with the people in that area. We are proud of him for the choices he's made and his desire to serve the Lord. Now comes the fun of preparing and gathering all his things he will need to take with him.CONGRATULATIONS JASON!!!
