This is Monday's post. I often write Monday's post on Sunday afternoon, night, or even Monday Morning.
A couple of days after Bonnie said jokingly that we would withdraw our papers and see if anyone else wanted us as missionaries, this is what happened. We went to church on Sunday, Bonnie said to the bishop that we were beginning on feeling that they do not want us.
Our bishop said that he has something that he wanted to show her. He took little --pad (whatever it was) and connected to the church site, found our name, and it said that on June 22, we were assigned. That means on last Friday, they finally found our papers and decided where to send us. That means that perhaps we will find out this week.
However, if our paper work, or our call gets sent out one of these coming days, if it doesn't have to go around Venus, or Pluto, if it is not lost, if it is really sent to us, to our address, then perhaps one day this week we may be doing the mailbox shuffle and find our call actually in the mailbox. No promises. But if we were really assigned last Friday, perhaps there are not a lot of things that could delay it further?
Now I know there are hundreds of things that could delay it, and knowing our luck, it will be delayed again and again, but who knows. At least another step was taken last Friday and someone has decided where to send us.
As I try to really accept that we have been assigned, my excitement starts to build once again. We are starting to really get excited about going somewhere as senior missionaries. But even after getting our call, I am sure there are still days, weeks, months? that we will have to wait to actually go and actually do.
At least something has happened and there has been some progress made concerning these two desiring missionaries.
