Mission Papers

There's progress!

It took a while, but we finished all the applications, lists of credentials, doctors' reports, dentists' reports, and all else required of us, and the papers are now in the inbox of our bishop.

The hardest part was coming up w/ a photo of the two of us in mission clothing.

We have our interview next Sunday w/ the bishop, and then if all is well, we will have an interview w/ the stake president. We have Stake Conference on the second Sunday from now, so we'll have to wait till after that to meet w/ him. Say, around May 4.

Then if all is well, he pushes the final button, and off it all goes to Salt Lake.

Then we wait. Maybe not for long. The earliest we could hear is about May 12, and the latest is about May 23, a day or two after we leave here.

We're tempted to have our call sent to Chris's so we can get it as soon as possible!

It was back in January that we began to initiate the first steps of this process. Now we're well down the road. Preparing the papers were just part of it.

I took my little break from writing in this mission blog on March 14, and started again on April 14. On May 14 we could have our call. We'll let everyone know!

That is very cool. What a neat thing it would be to have your mission call sent to your son's house where certain grandkids could be there for the grandopening!

Very cool! We're excited for you! (AND, I checked your blog several times but was not cool enough to ask why you weren't writing...sorry.)
