Mission Call :D

Hello All,

I have just received a call to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This means that I will be paying my own way for two years in an area that I didn't choose so I was anxious and surprised to find out. I am also going to learn a foreign language within those two years to allow me to speak with people about my religion and the joy that it brings into my life.

Anyway about my call ;)

I have been called to serve in the California San Jose Mission, speaking Mandarin Chinese. At the very latest I will be going into the Missionary Training Center on Tuesday, February 2, 2010 I may be able to bump that date up a little sooner (I will post if this does happen I will be sure to post the new date).

:D I am so excited and cannot wait to start. Again this blog will be my only means of contacting others while I am on my mission. I will not be able to send emails to any specific person other than those in my immediate family while on my mission. However, I am pretty sure I will be able to send and receive hand written letters from friends but I don't know how often I will have the time to write replies. I would like to thank everyone for helping to support me, especially those who anxiously waited with me.

Sincerely,

Joey Christensen
