MTC

We spent two weeks at the MTC, one week in the Preach My Gospel manual and one week in trying to learn office systems. We were in the largest group of senior missionaries to enter the MTC. There were 153 of us. People were going all over the world: Japan, Canada, Mongolia, Fiji, Morroco, Togo, South Africa, Cambodia, Germany, Italy, France, England, all over the U.S., so all over the world. We met a lot of great people and had a wonderful experience. The excitement was high for hastening the work. We loved singing Called to Serve with two thousand young missionaries at the devotionals. Now we are home to enjoy the holidays and wait and wait and wait for our visas. Hopefully we will leave for Australia sometime in January. Who knew what a process this would be!

Mission Call!

Welcome to our new Mission Blog
We are headed to Brisbane, Australia. We enter the MTC in November. If all goes well we will be "down under" in December.  We have a list 5 pages long of things to do and we are anxiously awaiting our fingerprint clearance from the FBI so we can get our visas.  We hope you will check in from time to time.  Hopefully we can get this whole blog thing figured out and keep posting.
We hope you will leave comments because it will help us keep connected. 
We love our family and friends!
