A Memorable Missionary Moment


The letters sat side by side on the mantle....

And, everyone wondered....

Where will they serve?

The tension in the room mounted as we waited for family members to get online so they could share in the moment with us.

There was a large map on the wall with predictions and guesses by family and friends;

FIJI,
NEW ZEALAND,
CALIFORNIA,
AFRICA,
RUSSIA,

And, then it was time to actually open the envelopes.

The twins made an interesting decision; they would each open the other's letter...

They did rock, paper, scissors to decide who would go first - and then the calls were read:
Stockton to Chile
Landon to Argentina...

What a memorable moment....

They will be AWESOME missionaries....

Good luck, Elders.
