James' mission call

James was called to the Brazil Belem Mission on July 7, 2009. The mission is located n the NorthEaster part of Brazil, right on the Amazon River.
He was scheduled to report to the Brazil Missionary Training Center on Oct 21, 2009.

A letter came from the church on September 11, 2009, changing his mission call to the Brazil Teresina Mission. We discovered that this is a new mission, created from the Brazil Belem and Brazil Fortaleza Mission last July. This is the 28th mission in Brazil. It will allow many areas to be opened up that haven't had missionaries before.

James was still scheduled to fly out on October 20th, arriving at the Brazil MTC on the 21st. A week before he was to leave, information came from the church that he was to report to the MTC in Provo, as his Visa to Brazil hadn't arrived yet.

James entered the Provo MTC on October 20, 2009 at 11:30 a.m.
He's off to a great spiritual adventure. Weknow the Lord will bless him as he serves among the people of Brazil.
