Mitchell has started a Facebook page entitled "Mitchell McCrea is going on a LDS Mission! Guess Where?" He sent in his paperwork to LDS Church headquarters the previous Wednesday, February 20, 2013. Usually mission calls (assignments) are returned within two weeks. Guesses on the Facebook site as to where people think Mitchell will be called are numerous...Idaho, Pakistan, North Dakota, Honduras, Nebraska, Iowa, New York City, Texas, Scotland, Ireland, Missouri, Africa, New Zealand, Mexico, Chile, North Carolina, South Korea, Australia, Canada, Hawaii, Japan, India, Portugal, Montana, Peru, California, Oregon, Finland, Germany, The Congo, Ukraine, England, Argentina, Virginia, Oklahoma...and even the Moon. And a couple of people suggested Brazil....

Pre-Mission, Laredo
February 2, 2013
The envelope containing her mission call arrives in the mail. Less than 2 weeks since her mission papers were submitted advising all that she wanted to serve an 18 month full time mission. But the big question is...Where has Mariah been called to? Many guesses are out there. Some say Cleveland...or Michigan...or South America or someplace where Spanish is spoken. Mariah is playing it coy...trying to control her emotions...but deep down inside she wants to serve someplace where she can further learn the Russian language. And the answer is? Ukraine Dnepropetrovsk Mission, Russian speaking. "Dne.... what?" is the refrain..."how do you pronounce that name?" But ol Mariah to the rescue..."it is pronounced 'Dnepropetrovsk'" is her reply. But where is it located? A quick search finds this town at the confluence of two rivers, the Dnieper and Samara, close to the Black Sea, on the southern coast of Ukraine. And then all is silent and all gasp....wow!
