Hey ya'll as many of you know my Brother Elder Marvin has been called on a mission. Before he left he asked me if I would take care of his blog for him, and update you wonderful people on his adventures!! Of course I said I would. So I will be posting about his letters he sends home and hopefully some pictures he will send too! (just because I loves pictures sooooo much!!)
Just so you know today is the day he starts his biggest adventure for the next two years!! Here are a few pictures of what went on today before the MTC and during the drop off.
Until I receive and email or letter from Elder Marvin I will leave you with his final words from his recent Facebook status update:

"Here are my last words for Facebook for 2 years. I know that my redeemer lives! My Father in Heaven is mindful of me he knows my faults and he knows my strengths. I am honored and humble to have the opportunity to serve him in the Roseville California Mission. I will serve him with all my might, mind, and soul. I will stand in holy places and share the light of the truth of the restored Gospel ofChrist. I will lead by example and follow with steadfastness in Christ. I will remember to be humble in the trying times and in the best of times. I challenge everyone to come to know of the truth for themselves, to stand in holy places, to follow the words of our latter day prophets, to help the less fortunate, to love one another, and to remember that Heavenly Father is mindful of you and if we but follow his teachings we may have the opportunity to gain Eternal Life and become Gods and Goddesses through his great and merciful Plan of Salvation. God be with you until we meet again.Much love from your friend Elder Jeff Vance Marvin"Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation."Isaiah 12:2
