Oh the Mission Calls!

I have to say a ton of people have gone on top of handing in their mission papers as soon as they can. I've had a ton of friends, and other people I know, who have gotten their mission call, and even more who have turned in their missions papers and are just waiting. It's fun to see where everyone is going and when they will be leaving. :)
But tonight I had the opportunity to go to a mission call opening. I've never been to one, so this was my first one. It was one of my best friends who opened it tonight; Chandler. :) He is going to . . . drum-roll please . . . South Carolina, Columbia mission!
Which was somewhere he wasn't even expecting. He really wanted to go out of state and somewhere foreign, specifically Ireland. But, he's still excited to be going, and, like what many people say, it's where he is suppose to go. God has plans for him, and obviously it includes that opportunity for Chandler to bless the lives of people in South Carolina the way he has blessed peoples lives here. :)
Here is a picture of the US, so if you look for South Carolina and find Columbia and voila that's where he's going to be serving. He'll be leaving July 10th of this year.
Well, I have a few other friends who will be receiving their calls soon, and I will let you know where they are going. :D Eck! This makes me excited. In about a year I'll be able to start filling my papers out and submitting them. Weird, I know.

  1. It is SO weird we'll be able to start submitting ours in a year. I'm SUPER excited to do it though! We've been learning a lot about serving a mission in Seminary and It's really made me SO excited! I'm excited to see where we end up! :)
