Meg's Mission Call!


So as you all know, Meg has been waiting for her mission call very patiently (not!) for 15 days, and it finally showed up yesterday! The worst possible day for it to show up of course; forcing parents to drag their young children away from trick-or-treating and for them to risk their houses getting egged because they weren't there to hand out candy. Oh the joys of life!;) Also because her parents were in Disney World! Oh well, there was no way she was waiting any longer than she had too! Well after saying it'd be open at 8 of course it wasn't open until 8:30 (she almost died because we kept making her wait for people to come!). When she finally opened it it read:

Dear Sister Wach:
You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Portugal Lisbon Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months.
You should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday, April 3, 2013. You will prepare to preach the gospel in the Portuguese language. Your assignment may be modified according to the needs of the mission president.

Wow! Portugal Lisbon Portuguese speaking! Now she and Chris will be able to speak Portuguese and I won't understand! But she isn't to happy about the date she'll leave for the MTC! 5 months! The MTC must be really really busy! She's excited all the same:).

Thanks everyone who came and thank you for all your support! We love you!

By the way, this is Megan, if you didn't realize by the correct use of "our" and "are" and something closer to correct punctuation;) Hehe.
