I Hope They Call Me On A Mission



It was one year ago today that we took my brother Sam to the Missionary Training Center and he became Elder Snow. It is hard to believe that that much time has gone by. He is at his halfway point. One more year and he will be back with us. But for now he serves the Lord and the people in Mexico City. Here are some pictures he has sent since he has been on his mission.







Elder Snow is able to read my blog on his preparation day which is every Monday. If you would like to leave a comment for him here he will be able to see it.
Sam, we love you and miss you and are so proud of you.

Sam,
Wow I can hardly recognize my cousin. I have not seen you in a long time. It looks like you are serving with all your might and having a blast. I am glad to see that you are having such a memorable experience. Remember this is the only time in your life your will get to dedicate so much of your time to serving God's children. Thank you for representing the Lord. Return with Honor.
Love Kathy Fowler (Upchurch)

Sam,
I too became very emotional when I looked at these pictures of the MTC. Saying goodbye to you there was one of the hardest things I have every had to do. I am so proud of you because you never wavered in your decision that going on a mission was the only right thing to do. You have always been a good son. You are a great missionary and your family has been so blessed because of your missionary service. You are doing what the Lord wants you to be doing with your life right now. The next year will fly by as quickly as the pastone has.
Love
MOM
