Some of you may know that Landon has had issues with his back for several years. Due to extreme stupidity on the Slopes, Basketball Court, Football Field or anytime he hung out with his great friends. He made teenage decisions, enough said!!! Due to this he has developed a bulged disc in his back. Now that he has been at the MTC studying for 10 hours a day, sitting on hard chairs it has become worse.
He has been seeing the Dr. at the MTC and also Dr. Richey in Payson. After much counsel, prayer, fasting and Priesthood blessings it has been decided that 2 years in the Philippines is probably not the best place to serve with back problems. The MTC Presidency has decided to send all of Landon's information to the Church office where someone in the First Presidency or Council of the 12 will review it and extend a new call to serve in the United States. He is hoping that he will know by Monday October 3rd. I will post as soon as we know.
I was able to talk to him on the phone yesterday and he sounds great!!! He loves serving the Lord and his testimony and excitement to share the gospel has grown so much over the past 7 weeks. He has had a great attitude toward the change even though he was looking forward to Manila. He did comment that the Lord does not care where you serve, just as long as you serve. Heavenly Father has a new plan for Landon and we are excited to see what that is. Rarely does one get 2 Missionary calls so we are anxiously awaiting round 2.
Thank You for all your love, support and prayers that have been offered to us as a family.
