On July 15, 2010, after 4 long weeks of waiting, Dan’s mission call finally arrived. He was called to serve in the Micronesia Guam mission, English speaking, with a report date of November 3rd. It is a moment I will never forget, we were thrilled and excited to share the news with family and friends. We were familiar with the mission since Aunt Liana had served there nearly 20 years ago, although we hadn’t heard of anyone else going there since. Micronesia is comprised of thousands of small islands in the western Pacific Ocean. The name Micronesia derives from the Greek micros, meaning small, and nesos, meaning island. It is located north of Australia and east of the Philippines.
