...and he's off

Thanks to modern technology friends far and wide will be able to see how Michael is doing. I'll try to keep it updated as we receive word from him.

As of right now we don't know when his P-Day is... hopefully we'll find out soon. And I also don't know his address. I do know that his mailbox # is 111- and he is the Florida Orlando Mission. I;m sure he would love to hear from anyone. I'll post a more updated address once I have it.

Well, the past few days have been a bit surreal as we have said goodbye for a time to our awesome brother, son, and friend. We were all a little emotional as we thought of not seeing his funny expressions or hearing his jokes for two whole years... but as the time came for him to be set apart as a missionary and for us to walk out of the "family doors" at the MTC, we all felt calm and peaceful as we know that he is ready and worthy to be a full-time representative of our Savior Jesus Christ. We couldn't be more excited to see the changes he makes and the person he becomes as he embarks and this new journey. We are proud of him, and we will miss him, but we are all confident that he is doing what he should be, and he is where he wants to be. Anyway, I'll post pictures of his setting apart and of him going to the MTC. Please keep him and other missionaries in your prayers!
