Show Me

Guess what? I got my mission call! You didn’t know I was planning on going? Most people didn’t. I’m sorry. Really. Anyways I have been called as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As missionary prep trains you to say, my initial assignment is the Independence, Missouri Visitors’ Center. Super cool right? And it gets better. I will be speaking Spanish. Super random. But it feels so right. It takes two elements I really wanted—a church history site and learning Spanish—and combines them. Perfect. Have you ever felt that you have finally found what is right? It seems I have been searching for a long time about what the right decisions for my future would be. This decision, though difficult, already has been one of the best ones I have ever made. I know that this is what I am supposed to be doing. It took me a long time to make this choice but I am so happy now that it is made. Sometimes we really are allowed to live our dreams and feel true joy. I cannot wait to learn all about this area of church history and share what I know of this great gospel with others seeking for truth. I’m going to Zion, baby. (Missouri is the Show-Me State, hence the title).
