Missionaries: It's Not About the WHERE; it's about the WHO.

People often ask me questions like,

"Where are you going for your mission?"

"Where do you want to go?"

"Where do you think you are going?"

"What if you get sent to Boise, Idaho?"

That's not what it's about for me. It's not about seeing some great tourist attractions. It's not about dealing with fair weather. It's not about the place.

....It's about the WHO.

Somewhere in this amazing world is someone that needs me; my personal strengths, weaknesses, outlook on things--I have something to offer specifically to that individual. 

I will deal with it whether that person is in Boise, Idaho or Paris, France. I want to go WHERE the WHO(s) are for me. The people that I can most bless.

Cause, really. Going on a mission isn't about the WHERE. It's about the WHO.

Missionaries. Going forth and Serving.

I am so stoked to receive my mission call. I think about it all the time, and I feel the Savior's love in my heart.
How can this church not be true? I know that the women going forth to preach will bring joy to people' lives.

I keep watching this video over and over again. What great young adult men and women we have here in the church. What great missionaries.

yeah.

I Created This Video For My Advertising Application...But I Didn't get My Application in On Time.

Let me know what you think though! Luckily, I did get my journalism application in on time.

And also, my life plans have changed. So not such a big deal at all.
