On September 24th, 2019, I left the United States and my home state on an early flight departure of 7:00 a.m. to serve the people of México. My family and I had to get up very early to be able to get to the airport and do all that airport stuff. It has been a busy several weeks to get prepared for serving a mission. It will be an awesome experience! Also, I am grateful for many of my friends and family that were able to be in attendance to hear me talk at my mission farewell; each has and will have supported me in many ways. I am thankful for the love and support. Also, it was very awesome to have my sister's homecoming talk that same day as we were both able to talk together in sacrament meeting! She arrived home from the Brazil São Paulo South Mission on September 11, 2019. It was great to spend some time - just short of two weeks with her before I left on my mission.
