OUR MISSIONARY UPDATE


Our missionary update is long overdue. Elder Lavin completed his first year in the mission field on July 25, 2008 -- complete with a stuffed camel (for the "Hump Day") from the family!! It was about then that he received the call from the Mission President to be District Leader. We at home were pleased to hear that and felt confident in Ian. But then, about a month later (just about the time we were waiting for little Matthew to come), we get a phone call from a woman in the ward Ian was serving in. She called to check on the baby and to let us know what a wonderful son & missionary we had! She also wanted us to know that he had been transferred and was being made a Zone Leader! Oh my! I hope he can put that zealous nature into weed pulling at the homefront when he comes home, ha! Seriously, we are pleased that the Mission President sees such potential in Ian.
