My Missionary Commission By Elder Bruce R. McConkie.

I am called of God. My authority is above that of kings of the earth. By revelation I have been selected as a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my master and He has chosen me to represent Him to stand in His place, to say and do what He Himself would say and do if He personally were ministering to the very people to whom He has sent me. My voice is His voice, and my acts are His acts; my doctrine is His doctrine. My Commission is to do what He wants done; To say what He wants said; to be a living modern witness in word and in deed of the divinity of his great and marvelous Latter-day work. How great is my calling!

Today we dropped Zack off at the Missionary Training Center in Provo where he will spend the next two months. It was a little emotional for us as we send him to serve the Lord. We will all miss him tons but are so proud of his choice to go and serve his Heavenly Father.

I Hope They Call Me on a Mission....

He's grown a foot or two and he's received his call. Elder Sawyer Will head to the Missionary Training Canter on June 23rd 2010. He will be there for two months learning the Spanish language, preparing to teach the Spanish speaking people in the Houston Texas South Mission area. He is excited to serve his Heavenly Father as a Missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The cowboy in him is looking forward to being in Texas.

We had the privilege of escorting Zack to the St. George Temple this past weekend. It was an amazing experience for us as parents. Taking your child to the Holy Temple makes you feel both proud of him for the choice he has made to serve the Lord and makes all those years of frustration worth it.

Zack is a great young man and he will be a great Missionary. Although we will miss him, we know that he is doing the Lords will and we will all be blessed while he is serving the Lord.

I hope they call me on a Mission!

I can't believe this cute little Man is now old enough to be going on a Mission!
