Transition From the MTC to the Field

Jacob was able to call the morning he flew from SLC to Boise. He sounded really good and ready to go. Then we heard from the Idaho Nampa Mission office on Wednesday, "Elder Waite has arrived in our mission and doing well. We are pleased to have this fine young man."

We also heard from Jacob. He was told to write a quick email home and let us know he made it. He says he likes his companion, Elder Boswell. Since Elder Boswell is his trainer he calls him his 'dad'. Haha! (it's a mission thing) He's from Missouri. They are serving together in Payette, ID. We are looking forward to hearing more this coming Monday!

Jacob was also blessed to be among a few St. Johns friends in the MTC!
