See you in 2!

Tonight we got to attend one of my favorite cousin in law's setting apart! He has been called to serve as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Ecuador!! He leaves for the missionary training center (MTC) in the morning. This was such a cool experience. Logan is such an amazing kid. He is so kind, helpful, funny, and genuinely a good friend. Even though he is only 18, he and I are buds. Tonight I got to watch him take a big step in his life. For the next two years he will be serving the people of Ecuador and sharing the wonderful message of the gospel. He is going to be an amazing missionary!! His mom and dad should be so proud of their little boy (he's 6' 7"). There was such a strong spirit in the room as his mom and dad bore their testimonies along with his bishop, a member of the stake presidency, and the stake president. I am so grateful to have the church in my life. It was amazing to hear his blessing and how personal and specific it was to him. I am sure that he will remember the things that were said and that they will give him strength throughout the next two years. The people of Ecuador are lucky to get this boy, and they better take good care of him for us while he is gone!
