The Long Ride

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was on an LDS mission for three years with my husband in Tonga. We traveled on tiny boats and planes to small islands and stayed with members in the villages there. I was a mother to over 800 missionaries and responsible for their health and well being.
