Elder Caleb Pincock's Mission Blog: Huancayo, Peru Mission: Mission Call

MISSION CALL:

Caleb read his mission call on May 10th, 2013 It was such an exciting day for all of us. We were all anxious to hear where the Lord wanted him to serve.

Huancayo, Peru Mission! Wow! Everyone was so excited, especially me cause my son finally gets to learn my native language of Spanish. Caleb new it was the perfect place for him right from the start. September 25th 2013 is the day he reports to the Lima, Peru Missionary Training Center (MTC). The wait of 4 months begins.... but at least I get to have more time with him before he leaves..

Temple night was definitely a night to remember. Special, spiritual and sentimental. We all enjoyed the experience.

FAREWELL TALK:

The missionary farewell talks were a hit. Both Caleb and Griff got to give their farewell talks. The spirit was strong and the musical duet by my baby Marisa and Griff was amazing. The chapel was full of Caleb's and Griff's friends and lots of family members that came to Lubbock for the special occasion.

My sister Noelia, flew from Miami and spent countless hours working on one of her amazing cakes. She is so creative! Love ya sis!

THE AMAZING CAKE!

Someone had to eat the cake. Party anyone? Didn't take much convincing.
