August 25, 2010 - Austin received his Mission Call to Ohio, Columbus Mission (Spanish speaking)

Austin is on the phone with Dale, who is in SLC for a few days.  He called him and put him on speaker phone so he could hear Austin read his mission call letter.  Dale served his mission in Ohio, Akron/Cleveland, so he thinks Austin is teasing him and telling him that he's going to Ohio...that's why we can't believe it.  Austin had a fun day of telling many of his friends and family about his call.  He made and received lots of phone calls, sent out lots of texts, and finally posted it on Facebook at the end of the day.  His first call was to Uncle David Ipson, who served in the same mission.  Austin's assignment is the standard 24 months, and his call also included a Spanish speaking assignment.  He will enter the MTC on December 29, 2010.
