Our last phone call of the mission

It was great to talk to Jesse yesterday on Mother's Day. All 12 of us joined in on a conference call together. Mylie and Jacob also each sang him a Primary song which he loved. He sounded good and very happy. Today Jesse just wrote a short e-mail discussing a few classes he may take in the Fall.

On the topic of finishing his mission soon, Jesse said he feels two things. He said "I can't wait to come home to America" and also "I really don't ever want to leave Ghana." So it will be bitter-sweet when the time comes. His release date is August 24th and he'll be sitting in a Statistics 121 class five days later. (!)

One-stop shopping for spiritual healing!
I think in this economy I'd choose #5.
