Leaving Home:


















Today the Lord sent out His servant,
A young man with light in his eyes, 
And a countenance so bright his
Spirit radiates all the goodness of his soul.
Willingly he goes to unknown
Lands and people, both of whom shall
Carve a deep place within his
Heart.  A heart whose capacity
Is boundless, to do that which it was 
Always intended to do . . . LOVE. 
This young man shall walk with 
Angels and be cloaked in Heaven's embrace,
For today the Lord sent out His servant.

Landon left for South Africa on Tuesday, Feb. 14th, 2012 for a two-year-mission  for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  The South African Missionary Training Center, in Johannesburg, will be his home for three weeks.  He will then go on to the Durban Mission and wherever the Lord sends him.  
Landon plans to write his family once each week.  Those correspondences will be posted through this site for friends and family to enjoy.  We are looking forward to following him on this amazing journey.
