Marcus Update

Marcus was given the Melchizedek priesthood on Sunday, April 11, and he was also ordained an Elder by his father, Bryan.
From the Church's website:
The Melchizedek Priesthood “administereth the gospel and holdeth the key of the mysteries of the kingdom, even the key of the knowledge of God. Therefore, in the ordinances thereof, the power of godliness is manifest. And without the ordinances thereof, and the authority of the priesthood, the power of godliness is not manifest unto men in the flesh; For without this no man can see the face of God … and live” (D&C 84:19–22).  
Now his mission papers have been submitted (pending the final doctor's note clearing his knee) and he is waiting for his call!
