Opening His Mission Call

On March 31 Jon opened his mission call at our home in Irvine, CA with family and friends joining in person and online through Facebook live streaming. Prior to opening the letter, everyone guessed where he will be called to serve and each guess was represented by a flag pin stuck into the world map as shown.

Dear Elder Klingler:

You are hereby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the North Carolina Charlotte Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 24 months.

You should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday, July 12, 2017. You will prepare to preach the gospel in the English language.
