LDS.org

Don't you just love to go to lds.org and see all the wonderful and constantly updated materials that they have? I know that I do!


I was so excited to finally see the video that was made last summer of some friends and missionaries serving in the same mission that my husband and I have been serving in. The church filmed this video at the home of our friends, The Olsen's, who live just up the street from us. It was the Olsen's that first introduced us to the LDS Addiction Recovery mission when they spoke on our wards Sacrament meeting after we had been in our new ward for only 3 months. Our hearts were touched and the Spirit bore witness to both my husband and I all throughout that meeting, that this was something we needed to find more about. About a month later, my husband and I were called as part time service missionaries to one of the Utah LDS Addiction Recovery missions. We served there for 18 months then transferred to another area that was closer to home for us. We have since served more months and have 8 months to go on this, our second service mission. What will happen after that? As we learn in Step one, when we turn our lives and our wills over to the Lord, he will guide and direct our paths. He knows much more than we could ever know.

Anyway.... I wanted to include this interview with the Olsen's for you to enjoy and see what wonderful people they are. The church needs full time and part time missionaries. Missionaries are needed everywhere. You don't need to be retired to serve missions for the church, and you don't even need to move away from home. Just ask me!!! Love, Katie G.

P.S. This and the other two videos that are well worth viewing can be found at this link http://www.lds.org/csm/csmvideo.html
