MTC Report

Elder Rife, called and ready to serve.

FROM AN EMAIL FROM DAD:

I just got off the phone with Lynn Gilbert. Lynn is a counselor in the MTC branch presidency over the Korean missionaries. He is also the Korea Busan Mission President, effective July 1, 2011.

He said “I just needed to call you to let you know that I spent this evening with your son, Michael. You would have been so proud of him. He looked happy. He has such a presence and is dignified and self-assured. He bore a powerful testimony of the gospel. He’s going to be a great leader.”

Can you imagine how that made us feel? We have been thinking of nothing else since we turned him over to the MTC yesterday at 1 p.m. (which was harder than you’d imagine). What a joy and what a relief!
