Caleb Arrives in Italy


Caleb with President Thomas Kelly and his wife


Caleb arrives with his district in Rome, Italy


At the airport the missionaries all happened to run into Elder Holland (an apostle in our church).  They said he was really wonderful and took the time to talk with them all.


We finally received a call from Caleb the night before last from the London airport.  It was so great to hear his voice and to also get a sense of his excitement about finally getting to Italy.  He was really cute and even spoke some Italian for us.  Today his mission President emailed us to let us know that he arrived safely there.  They even sent pictures.  His first area he'll be serving in is called Palermo.  All of the pictures we've pulled up look beautiful.  It is the capital of Sicily and an island on the southern tip of Italy.  We know he will love it there.  We are all very happy for him!
