Called To Serve.

     Today my brother received his much anticipated mission call. We have been looking forward to this day for a very long time. 

     Luckily I was able to come to Utah this weekend to visit Matt and Sarah, so we were able to be together and FaceTime with Parker as he opened his call. 

     We all made our guesses as to where he would be going, I said Virginia or Jamaica, everyone else had their own guesses. Well none of us were right, or even close.

    He opened up that big white envelope and it read, the Tuxtla Gutierrez Mexico Mission. Parker reports to the Provo Missionary Training Center September 17th, where he will learn spanish and prepare to serve the people of Mexico. 

     I already know that my brother will be an amazing missionary. He is one the hardest working kids I know. He is loved by everyone he meets and brings a smile to everyones face. There is no doubt in my mind that he will touch the lives of many people. He is going to bring so much light and love to the people in Tuxtla Gutierrez, Mexico. It is weird to think that in a few short months he will be leaving for two years, but I am so proud of him for the decision he has made to serve the Lord. He is a great example to me and cannot wait to see him grow even more throughout his mission.
