Elder Santiago had something very coincidental happen to him when he was heading to the CCM.
He told this story to his mother in one of the several airports he visited.
As a missionary, Elder Santiago is supposed to have a companion at all times, but there are certain cases where there isn't always one around. He was in the Atlanta airport waiting for his flight to Salt Lake City, UT when he saw another missionary and his parents waiting for the same flight.
He made his way over and introduced himself to the family. Pleasantries were swapped. This elder was getting off his mission to Mexico and his parents came to pick him up. Elder Santiago said he was going to the Guatemala Guatemala City Central mission. That's where the story gets fun!
The mother of the returning missionary was related to Elder Santiago's mission president! What a small world.
Elder Santiago flew to Salt Lake with his mission president's sister, brother-in-law and nephew!
Elder Santiago made it safely to the CCM, as I'm sure everyone is aware after reading his first couple emails home.
We're all excited to hear more funny stories like this, so please remember to check back on this blog every now and then!
