I thought it would be great to get a picture of all my return missionaries.....so I had each of the boys bring their missionary tag. [Mason was our last one to go out.}
Dan (the Dad}- Argentina 1976-1978, Sam-Cochabamba Bolivia Mission 2000-2002,
Kent- Portugal Porto Mission 2004-2006, Denver- São Paulo North, Brazil 2006-2008-
Mason-Billings Montana Mission 2009- 2011
What a blessing; one of the things I like about this picture- All the boys still look like missionaries. On Kent's mission at a Mission conference someone from the Quorum of the Seventy - said- we won't know for sure if you were a successful missionary for 10 years....if in ten years you still look and act like a missionary, pay tithing, marry in the Temple, work to gain an education in some way.....then we will know you were a successful missionary. (he had some more points, these are just a few I remember}
“ it is not a two-year mission; it is an eternal mission."
Love that you really can't tell who the most recent return missionary is-
Mason wanted to say good-bye to his worn out old Mission suit- by turning it into a wet suit.
