Tuesday night we ate dinner at Red Robin (Spencer's choice) then went to the church so Spencer could be set apart. Pres. Jones gave him a wonderful blessing and made Spencer many great promiss if he keeps the commandments. Which I know he will. We then went home and finished packing and all went to bed. Up at 6:00 and loaded up and left at 7:00 a.m. It is hard to believe he will be gone for 2 years but Pres. Monson in the last conference restated how each young, worthy man should serve a mission. Spencer has always done what he should and I have no doubt he will be a great missionary.
We got to the M.T.C. at 12:00 p.m. They directed us down a long roadway where several missionaries were waiting. They welcomed him enthusiastically as Mom was trying to get pictures and hug Spencer, as was I. They had him unloaded and gone before we could turn around. It was quite a welcome. We anxiously await his first letter to see how he is doing.
