Brandon is Coming Home :)

Today we anticipate Elder Harmon's return. Here is a message we sent out to family and friends 2 days ago.

Hi Everyone,

We wanted to send out a quick note about Brandon and his status. A lot has transpired over the last 3 days. After fasting for Brandon this last week, the Lord has really opened hearts and inspired minds so that we can help Brandon with what he needs. We had a chance to speak with his mission president and his wife. We heard the tender mercy story of the inspiration they received during the time of the fast to send Brandon home for medical help. He has been quite close to the President and his wife. They have been very concerned about him due to his health. He has lost 30 lbs and the doctors do not know what to do. His president talked to us about his courage and his determination to fight even though the President feels like he should have come home 6 months ago. His mission president was relieved when this week, Brandon conceded and said, "Okay, I will go home."

Brandon has been so valiant. His grhas been been phenomenal. His love for the people is amazing. The mission president's wife talked to us about his beautiful mastery of the language and of his gentle heart that has won over the people of Mexico. They consider him their personal giant in more ways than one. They are going to miss him. His president told us that they know it will be very hard for him to come home because he loves his mission and he loves the people and does not want to go. While our heart aches that he is going through this experience, we understand that the Lord is in charge and that this is part of Brandon's journey.

We look forward to seeing him on Friday when he flies in. We will be working aggressively to get him the medical attention that he needs and are so grateful to each of you for your love and support. Our faith and prayers that have been looking for miracles on his mission will now turn to gratitude to have him home and that he can get the medical help to understand what is wrong and get him on the path to recovery. He has been out serving and giving everything he has. We look forward to now watching over and serving him.

In my last e-mail to him today, the words that resonate and are so tender to me are, "WELL DONE MY SON"

Please continue to keep him in your prayers that he can be properly diagnosed quickly, receive the medical attention that he needs, and that his spirit will be filled with joy and recognition for the good he has done, the courage he has demonstrated, and the sacrifice he has made to serve the Lord with everything he could possibly give.

We love you and thank you!
