Ella is officially a missionary!

Ella is officially a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!! She was called to serve in the Laoag, Philippines mission. She was set apart on fathers day, June 15th and began her home MTC June 16-June 24th and then went to the Provo MTC until June 29 when she flew to the Philippines to go to the Manilla MTC!

She is a great girl and we are excited about her adventure. 

She gave a wonderful talk and sang a beautiful rendition of "I need thee every hour". It was so awesome to listen to that I keep listening to it on repeat!

President Scott set her apart and we were lucky to have my sisters and parents join us.

Our last couple nights together! Walk and games!

Saying goodbye was hard, but we are so proud of her!! Channing and Cavin were at FSY so they had to say goodbye early!

She was lucky to get picked up by her Oma and Opa who were in the USA and her two aunts Daphne and Sandra. 

I was SO grateful that they were able and willing to pick her up from the airport and safely drop her off at the MTC. We have a wonderfully supportive family! 

Go and serve with all your heart Ella! We love you!!
