About This Blog

Elder Benjamin Redd opened his call to serve in the Denmark, Copenhagen Mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on the Friday after Thanksgiving 2012. A lot of our family was there at Grandma Redd's cabin up Logan Canyon just above Bear Lake. Ben's Aunt Linda and Uncle Doug played a trick on him first though, and had a fake call that he opened. He was so nervous that he didn't even realize it wasn't his real call until he read that he would be serving for 18 months. That was a dead give-away. He was so excited when he realized that he really would be serving in Denmark. Three of his great-grandparents were originally from Denmark so that was great! This blog will be a compilation of his letters and pictures that he has been sending us since his mission began. It has just taken his mother a while to figure all of this blogging stuff out.
