Justin called home from the airport in Salt Lake before his plane departed yesterday...he sounded wonderful. He is so excited to be a missionary in Italy! He landed in Italy early this morning, safe and sound. I received a phone call this afternoon from his mission president's wife letting me know about his first day in Italy and about his first area and companion. He will be serving in Prato, not too far from Florence. His companion will be Anziano Pastillo from Equador (an incredible missionary that does not speak English!). We all know Justin was called to Italy for a specific purpose and that the Lord will bless him as he moves forward in the work of God. Below are some pictures of his first area, Prato.
P.S. Here's a simple interpretation of the video last week: "I am a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I'm here because I follow Jesus Christ. I want you to follow Jesus Christ, too. Have faith, repent and persevere. The gospel and atonement of Jesus Christ help us become like Him so we can live with Him again."
