Story by K:
As a large crowd gathered around Jacob's living room, the anticipation grew larger and larger. What was going through my head? Honestly? Pure excitement for Jacob. At this moment I was so happy for him. So happy that he is going out to serve Heavenly Father's Church.
Finally, at 3:30pm, on December 21, 2014, Jacob stood up in front of that large crowd of people with a large white envelope. Before he opened it, he bore his testimony to those of us in the room. Tears were shed from Jacob's eyes, as well as several others surrounding him. The love in the room was so strong as he ever so gently tore open the envelope addressed to him.

WOW! What an amazing experience this will be for him! I am so excited to see where these next two years lead him, and where he, an other missionaries can help lead the people of France. He is going to do so well. I am so so SOOO happy for him and this journey of his.
I am so ready to support him and listen to all that is happening with him for the next two years.
I love him so much, its indescribable the feeling I get when I am with him. And I cannot wait to receive that feeling again when he returns with honor.
