Let this be the first official announcement

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am going on a mission. 

This morning the prophet made a very big announcement:

I am leaving as soon as possible. 

As soon and I have the money to go.

Feel free to donate to the Sister Patterson Missionary Fund.

 We thank Thee, O God, for a Prophet,
To guide us in these latter days;
We thank Thee for sending the Gospel
To lighten our minds with its rays;
We thank Thee for every blessing
Bestowed by Thy bounteous hand;
We feel it a pleasure to serve Thee,
And love to obey Thy command.
