Elder Jordan's Homecoming

Elder Jordan Briggs returned home from the Arizona, Tucson Mission on May 9th at 2:29pm! He is a joy to be around and we love our spiritual GIANT! He is just as tall as when he left! Jordan reported his mission the Sunday after he returned home, which was also Mothers Day. It was a great weekend filled with lots of Jordan hugs, family, friends and food. Here are a few pictures from his homecoming.
