NOAH GREGORY RESSEL CALLED TO SERVE.... PARAGUAY ASUNCION NORTH MISSION  Spanish Speaking ~ Reporting August 8th 2022 Such an amazing night with our family, our extended family over zoom and some friends of Noah's over to support him while he read his mission call. It will be a night we will never forget!  He is going to be an amazing missionary! I can't wait to watch him grow along the way. Paraguay is lucky to have him for 2 years!
