Jason to serve in Frankfurt, Germany!
Grandma and I were the first to enter the house, and we were warmly greeted by his mother, Sherry. Jeff was setting up Skype for the event. A special spirit of excitement was present as I made my way into the dinning area where laid out, on the table, was a large map of the world. Post-it tags, with predictions on them, were on the map. The winner would received a large candy bar. One of my predictions was Austria which came in second place, but I got the candy as the 1st place winner was not present.
Julie was especially excited as she recently returned from serving in the Washington D.C. South mission. By 8:30 PM the great area of the home was filled with friends and family, and Jason was seated in front of the television. After a few short words of welcome, he began to open the larger envelope. All was silent as he read from the letter, but all I can remember were the words, "you are hereby called to serve in the Frankfurt Germany Mission."
This was quite a day in the life of a happy young man.
