This morning Elder Orchard boarded a plane and headed to the Mexico, Mexico City Southeast Mission via Atlanta, Georgia. He should arrive in Mexico City at 4:30 pm. Along with 19 other new missionaries he will meet his mission president and begin an exciting journey that will shape his life forever.
When we said goodbye this morning he was happy, healthy and courageous. I am so proud of him for pushing through his obstacles and committing to fulfill the call he has been given. Each time we obey our faith increases and our Heavenly Father blesses us. I know Douglas will be blessed beyond measure for his choice to serve. I'm already SO excited for letter day! The third time's the charm:).
