Setting Apart

Tonight at 5 pm on the 24th of July (Pioneer Day) we were set apart by President Trantor.  He gave us beautiful blessings that will help us to serve the Lord on our mission.  All of our family with the exception of Jason's family still in Brazil were there. Daphne provided dinner for us at her house afterward where we were able to say our goodbyes.  I get a little tear thinking about how much we will miss our children and grandchildren, but we know this is the example we want to set for them.  I just hope we all get the SKYPE going!
