Elder Cezary Gladun reported this morning to the MTC in Preston. He will be there for 3 weeks and will return back on March 16 and will be assigned to ____________, Poland. (Did you really think I was going to tell you?)
On his last night, before being set apart, Elder Gladun and his family came in to the Mission Home from Lublin. He poses with his father and President Nielson after being set apart and is now an official Missionary and Representative of the Lord.
This is a great picture. This is a great family. This is what a mission does for a family. The smiles on their faces say it all.
Earlier in the day, Mom and Dad helped in the kitchen. Beata made her first batch of American "Brownies". Licking the spoon must be universal.
Our Welcome Dinner, where the assistants were invited. It was good to have them there to help with the translation and to be with their "Fellow Servant".
We headed to the Warsaw Chopin Airport. We can write a book about the experiences we have had here. For some reason, we thought today would be easy and what could happen, right? Here Elder Gladun is checking in. He was first told that the last 90 passengers on the flight were unable to check in. One of the pilots was ill and they had to limit the passengers. That didn't make sense so we found someone who could speak better English. Apparently one of the flight attendants did become ill and they couldn't allow the last 90 passengers to board because they wouldn't have adequate service for the beverages and snacks on the two hour flight to London. Yes, you heard that right. So he could not board the flight. We were sent to another line.
This is our friend at LOT Airlines, the Polish Airlines. Over the last few months, he has taken good care of us. He was able to get Elder Gladun on another flight to London and no harm was done. The line consisted of 90 people who for some reason were bumped from a British Airways flight to London.
There was a large group of the Jewish Brethren also traveling to London, probably not on to Preston and the MTC. Elder Gladun will have plenty of time to talk religion on the flight.
The last good bye. It doesn't matter if it's around the world or around the corner, sending a missionary off is not easy. The Gladuns live in Lublin, Poland. About the only city in Poland that Elder Gladun will not serve in will be Lublin. This young man will be an outstanding missionary. The change that has come over him in the last two months is marvelous! We pray that every young man (especially in Poland) reads this and knows that you go where the Lord needs you. You will be blessed; there will be a change come over you and your family that can only happen because of the Lord. It will be the greatest thing you can do at this point in life!
