Acceptance Letter

Quick selfie before church...
gotta take some while we still can!

It was a great day at church.  We have a fantastic ward who have played such a huge part in our family's lives in the nearly 19 years we have lived in Houston.  The support and excitement for Michael as his mission call was announced at church was a sweet experience.  Watching the Bishop come in before the meeting and making a beeline to hug Michael, all the sweet ladies who taught and helped raise Michael just beam with pride, and his friends, youth leaders and Scout leaders shaking his hand, congratulating him.  He was even given his first "Ugly Tie" to start his tie collection :)

Michael wasted no time in filling out his Missionary Call Acceptance with the Bishop to be returned this week to The First Presidency.  

Signature of missionary.  Wow.
