Time to Go: The Airport Goodbye


After a few months of getting the required immunizations, sending in copies of birth certificate and passport, getting FBI clearance and apostilles (we learned what those were), buying lots of white shirts and other needed clothing, saying goodbye to co-workers, and friends, and taking pictures with family, Adam was packed and ready to go. Thanks to everyone who helped him in these efforts and joined in the excitement. It was a wonderful time of preparation.
He successfully left Arizona early August 25th for the MTC in Provo, Utah. For the next nine weeks he will prepare to serve in Slovakia. He has much ahead of him, but he was excited and ready.
There were 8 or 9 other missionaries at the airport also. We talked to a few of them. They were going to Canada, Argentina and New York. There was a nice feeling there with all the families around. It was nice to know Adam had lots of others to be with when he arrived at the MTC.
