Called to Serve

My life has been changed completely. I feel a tidal wave of emotions at this point.

I, Kellie Ann Wood, have been called by the most powerful being in this universe to serve as a messenger to the people of Mexico Hermosillo. I will be spreading this glorious and wonderful gospel in Spanish.
I leave for this spectacular journey Dec 18.

Hermosillo,Sonora, Mexico

There's a temple in my mission!!
Yesterday was a whirlwind of emotions. I sat at work in the morning, so anxious to go home. I was so excited to have my friends and family around me, who have gotten me where I am today, to hear where I'll be for 18 months.

As soon as I saw my passport and visa application {which you'll see in the video} my heart jumped into my throat, hence why my voice sounds so terribly shaky in the video.
As soon as I ripped that envelope open, I got tunnel vision. Everything disappeared, it was only me and the Lord. My heart surged and my eyes watered as I read where my home would be for the next 18 months. Hermosillo. The spirit rushed into me and I felt this was where the Lord needed me. I had waited four months to know. And now I knew.

This church is true. I'm going to be a missionary. Me, Kellie.

And now for your viewing pleasure :)
