Welcome to Kelland's Mission Blog.  Here I will post updates about Kelland Hansen's mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, including letters he sends to everyone.  He has been called to serve in the Rio de Janeiro mission.

He arrived at the MTC (Mission Training Center) on Tuesday, April 17th.  He will spend the next three weeks there learning the Portuguese language and being trained how to teach the gospel.  We are so proud of him and know that the Lord is with him.

God be with you till we meet again.
See everyone in two years!!"
