To be complete I feel I need to finish what I started. There are still many things to do to go on our mission. I guess this is following whisperings to continue.
Yesterday we filled out an acceptance letter to send in to SLC to let the Brethren know that we accepted our call to serve in Dominican Republic. They call us, and I guess they need to know we are still ready, able, and desirous to go. So we wrote our acceptance and have to have the bishop sign and endorse it.
We have 64 days until we enter the MTC in Provo. Thus the 64 countdown, again. We are starting to make lists, and then we are making lists of lists to get done. There is much to do. Decisions have to be made, storage has to be arranged, the Deseret Industries has to be excited for the things we are giving them.
We purchased a Spanish Book of Mormon and have arranged a schedule to help Bonnie learn Spanish. She is so excited to learn. She "felt" long ago in Perry that she should learn Spanish, but didn't ever get around to it. Thus now we have a 64 day crash course to get her up and running in Spanish. She learned a short simple prayer yesterday and is practicing that constantly. She will do well.
We are also looking for lists to remind us of others who will want to know about our mission. There are a few...
Bonnie's one eye has yet to be evaluated, and we shall do that soon. That is the one major item that has to be accomplished soon so we know if we need surgery on it before we go.
So many friends have expressed congratulations about our call. Just like being pregnant and being delivered. We were delivered from one part of the wait to go be missionaries. Now another 64 days to real delivery.
