Senior Couple Mission? Think West Indies

We are enroute to five of the islands in our mission with 110 of our best friends.  Tomorrow we will in Antigua and on Tuesday in Barbados, we will meet with two sets of senior couples in the Bridgetown, Barbados Mission.  They will talk to us about what it is like to serve an island mission.

This video we prepared during our 3 year mission there will help convey our feelings about senior couple missions, too.

President Russell M. Nelson has encouraged couples to “get on their knees and ask Heavenly Father if the time is right for them to serve a mission.” Of all the qualifications, he said, “a desire to serve may be the most important.”

"I ask you to serve as a missionary in the gathering of Israel and perhaps even serve again. We need you—we need you. We are grateful to you seniors for the lives you have led and the examples you have been in your homes, wards, and stakes. I now invite you to take your know-how, coupled with your time-honored testimonies, and go on a mission." (Elder Rasband, General Conference, October 2023)
