Mission Call!

Hoorah! Today Nancy received a call to serve as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She's been assigned to serve in the Texas, Ft. Worth Mission and will be speaking Spanish. She reports to the MTC (a training center, where she'll receive instruction for a couple of weeks before going to Texas) on January 28 (yes, that is only 41 days away). I'm so excited!!!
And, while I'm on here I may as well share other good news--I found out today that the branch I attended in Charlotte this summer has now become a ward. :)

I had no idea she even had papers in. Must have been a secret huh? :)How fun to have all the Checketts sisters serve Spanish speaking! I'm sure she'll be well prepared! Tell her congrats for me. I'm awaiting other updates on your job too!

No, not a secret. Just not my life, so I didn't think to blog about it.
And I'm awaiting updates on my job too! I know I was selected as a finalist (the job comes through a program that's like a scholarship program). But then I've never heard more, so I'm guessing that's a no. But would they please tell me! Silly government.

Congratulations - how exciting for Nancy! She's going to be a great missionary. And how fun for your family to have another missionary out. I can't wait to hear on your job stuff, make sure to blog about it as soon as you know anything.
