Leaving Today!

Elder Matthew Braun Bowden was set apart as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints last night at 6:30 pm. He will embark on his 2 year journey today at 12:30 pm from the Salt Lake City airport. He will fly to Dallas Texas and from there he will be on a 10 hour flight to Buenas Aires Argentina. He will report to the MTC tomorrow morning at 9:00 am pending his Visa and everything works out (we are keeping our fingers crossed that we have everything done)! We are so proud of Braun for his decision to serve a mission! Although today will be bitter sweet, we couldn't be more excited for him! Please view his blog regularly as we will post pictures and letters that he sends home to keep everyone updated with his hard work and progress!
