Mexico here He comes!!!

The phone rang on Wednesday November 26th. To my surprise it was Jordan. He sounded so good. He was calling to tell us that his visa had finally arrived. He would be leaving for Mexico on Friday morning the 28th. He was leaving at 6:00 a.m.. He gave us his flight plans. I told him that I would be there to send him off. Parents are not suppose to go the the airport because they can not get through security. That is not a problem for us, since Brad flies with Delta. Nothing was going to stop me from seeing my son leave for Mexico. It did not matter that I had to get up at 3:30 a.m.. This was the best gift I could ever receive.

Brad and I arrived at the airport and was able to watch Jordan come through security. He was leading all the missionaries since he was district leader. It was so fun to sit back and watch him work. We followed him to the gate. It was funny because as he walked to the gate he turned and looked over his should. It was like he sensed us watching him. A great big smile came over his face. He walked over to us with his companion. We visited for a while and then took him to breakfast. We all had a wonderful time. Jordan looked so good. He radiates the light of Christ. As a mother I could not be more proud of him.

There were 13 missionaries traveling to Merida Mexico to serve their. Jordan told us that the church is increasing the number of missionary's their by 30%because the work there is growing so fast. Jordan is so excited to serve. I know he will be a great missionary. He loves the Lord and is grateful he can serve. Jordan is an example to all us who are blessed to know him. We are so grateful to have him in our lives.
