Brian is headed for Washington!

Just to update everyone - Brian is headed to Washington tomorrow. I can't believe that it has been almost 3 weeks already since we sent him off. I will let you all know if he is going to be able to communicate via email or just snail mail after he reaches Washington. For now, the address for the mission home is:
Elder Brian Bowler
Washington Kennewick Mission
8656 W. Gage Blvd., Ste. 205
Kennewick, WA 99336
He will be able to receive anything you send him via USPS (US Postal Service) if it is sent to the mission home. I will update his actual address on this blog whenever he gets a new one, but you can always refer back to this address if needed.

Brian wrote this past week that things were a bit harder his second week in the MTC and that he was a bit homesick. That is to be expected and his branch president told him that he was a normal missionary. He met another elder that was going through some "homesickness" also. He said that the other elder was kind of quiet and had a close relationship with his mom too. So, they got along really well. Other than that, he said that he was enjoying his time at the MTC but really looked forward to getting out into the field. When I return home next Monday, I will put up some pix for y'all. Brian would love to hear from you! Love ya!
