My Mission Call

The very day I retired I also turned in my application for a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Then I made a trip to visit my grandchildren in Texas and Macau, China.   While I was in Texas I received my call to the Hungary, Budapest Mission. I will arrive at the MTC on March 10, 2014 and leave the Mission Home one week later. My assignment is to serve as a Mission Office Specialist. My companion is a nurse.  It will be my privilege to travel around the countryside with her. I suppose English isn't spoken as much outside of Budapest so learning Hungarian is uppermost in my mind. I feel very blessed to be able to serve in a foreign country. Mike served his mission in France and he was in Germany in the US Military. I hope he will be with me during the next 18 months.
