Welcome to the Hotel California

In a week, I will get to see my little brother for the first time in 2 years. For the past two years exclusively, he has been serving a mission for our church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in different parts of Los Angeles, California. No salary (in fact, my parents pay a monthly stipend to support him), no dating, no schooling, nothing but servin' the Lord and preaching the Word 24/7. And he's been awesome at it, at least judging by his emails! I can't wait to see him--he's such a good example to me of diligence and persistence. See ya soon, little bro!
