Going on a mission to Paris France

It finally came and we couldn't be happier.  We thought maybe our missionary papers had been lost but when we found out that we have been called to serve in the France Paris Mission,  we could hardly contain ourselves.  To top that off we have been assigned to the Young Adult Center in Paris.  You can read about this new program in the June 2012 Ensign on page 62.  We love to work with the young adults and have been serving with them for 3 years in our stake and for the past 3 years at the MTC.  We will enter the MTC in October for a couple of weeks and then off to Paris.

As if thirteen children were not enough, Dixie has added about a thousand more as she serves with her husband, Russell, in the French Branch at the Missionary Training Center in Provo, Utah.  What a great opportunity to watch these young missionaries develop in preparation to enter the mission field.  Dixie is shown standing at the main entrance to the MTC on Mothers Day 2012.  We hope to join the ranks of these missionaries soon in as much as we are presently waiting for our full time mission call.
