Shalom #69 CALL TO SERVE

CALL TO SERVE.............

George and Sharon Masters......
They had started their mission papers before they were asked to teach
this semester at the Jerusalem center and then during this semester completed the application. Their "White Envelope" was waiting for
them upon their return from Galilee.......CES Winnipeg, Canada


It was exciting to help Rachel Curtis, Yuma, Az. prepare her mission papers this semester. We helped her to see the Dentist, fill out her medical portions of the application and then fax her mission papers to Salt Lake City. While the students were in the Galilee for 10 days her "White Envelope" arrived. Everyone was so happy for her as she read her call......Chicago, North - Spanish....
