Aaron Montegue, Ray Banks, Spencer Finch
other notable missionaries that I do not have current pictures of include Phuong (Dallin Cox), Mitchell Keith Westhoff, Kevin Steck, Adam Forsyth, and of course, none other than the famous Clark Jefferies Wilkey.All are doing incredibly well in the diverse areas where they are serving faithfully. Teren and Tyson will be home in late September (AHHHH!!! I CANT WAIT!!!!!), Derek will follow shortly after and return home in November and this Thursday, Clark will have been out for an entire year. Its crazy. I'm so excited for the work these missionaries are doing and the souls they are bringing to Christ. Its still hard to have your best friends are half a world away, and you can't talk to them like you'd like to. It certainly makes things difficult when all you want/need sometimes is a Derek or Clark hug. I miss them like crazy. But it'll all be OK. Soon enough, they'll be home, smiling, bright-eyed and bushy tailed, ready to share all their missionary experiences with all that come their way. I'm excited for that day. Until then, here's an awesome quote I found that pertained to the message of missionaries. May the Lord continue to bless you and have a happy Sunday! Later!
- Joseph F. Smith: There can be no greater, or more important calling for
men than that in which the Elders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-
day Saints are engaged, when in the discharge of their duties as
missionaries to the world. They stand as teachers, counselors and
leaders to the people. They are commissioned with the word of life,
and "the power of God unto salvation," to minister unto this proud,
conceited, self-righteous, but benighted and degenerate world.
"The Sacredness of Our Calling," Millennial Star, 28 June 1875.
