Elder Jordan Dale Comstock has been called to serve!

Jordan got his mission call on Thursday!!!!  He will be serving in the Honduras Tegucigalpa Mission.  He will be speaking Spanish.  He enters the Prove MTC on January 4, 2012 and will spend about 3 weeks there.  Then he will go to the MTC in Guatemala for 6 more weeks.  This is going to be such a wonderful opportunity for him.  Our Bishop told us on Sunday the call had been mailed so we checked the mail faithfully each day.  Everyone told us the calls always come on Thursdays but of course we thought we knew better.  But alas, the call DID come on Thursday.  Mark texted me about 11:00 saying.  "It's here we couldn't wait to open it, South Korea."  I called him in a panic and he and Jordan laughed at me.  Jordan came to my school and we went to lunch.  We went to Wendy's and ordered a bunch of food and then sat down and looked at it and decided we could not eat it!  Our stomach's were in knots.  Whitney soccer team played our cross town rivals at 4:00pm (and lost)  :(  Jordan had to work from 5-8.  He had invited a few close friends over and my mom and dad and David and Julie and family over for the ceremonial opening of the call.  We called Gma and Gpa Comstock and put them on speaker phone so they could be part of the action.  He opened the envelope and read out loud his call.  I was surprisingly calm.  He was SOOOO happy and everyone else just cheered with excitement.  We are so proud of the young man he has become and his willingness to serve the Lord.

Waiting for grandma and grandpa to arrive!!!



Way to go Elder Comstock!!!!!
