Riley decided to leave on his mission on July 15th instead of October. He texted the information to his stake president this morning. He received a text back saying to check his email in a few minutes. His call was there a few minutes later. On a Sunday. Crazy! Riley decided to keep it a secret from his parents. He asked Jorja if she would come over when he opened his call at 3:00. He called his grandparents and told them what was going on. Still, his parents had no idea. Jorja made missionary cookies and brought them over. Riley told his parents Jorja was dropping off some cookies. Riley's mom apologized to Jorja when she got there. She told her she was sorry, she had no idea that both sets of grandparents would be there and she didn't want Jorja to feel overwhelmed. Everyone was sitting around talking with Riley's grandpa asked Riley about his mission. He started telling the story about his calling and then he pulled out his mission call. His parents started crying they had no idea he had it. So... Riley read his call and found out he is going to Ethiopia, speaking some kind of crazy language.
