Another on of our Young Adults received their mission calls this week, Cynthia Seiola.
She has been called to the California Riverside Mission, and enters the MTC in Provo on July 16.
Cynthia has been raised by her Mother, her father died when she was young, and her mother raised her and her brother alone. They have very little, and she and her mom are the only members of the church in her family.
It was very touching to see the strength and courage as she and her mother have worked on her papers together and to see the bond that is between them. It will be very hard on both to be separated, but Cynthia's mom is so grateful that her daughter can have such an opportunity and Cynthia's is very grateful to go and serve the Lord.
Thank You to , Sis. Lyman (Elder Lyman's Mom) who is sending come clothing for both Cynthia and Merleen, so they will have some clothes to take with them.

Words can not adequately express, the spirit that was felt as Cynthia opened and read her mission call and as we watch both mother and daughter cry tears of gratitude that Cynthia could go.
