This last week Marc and I remembered that on June 12th we missed celebrating the anniversary of his mission homecoming! He served in Kiev, Ukraine and has now been home for 2 years and if you ask me, he has done pretty good for himself! He will be graduating with his Bachelors degree in a few weeks and then starting his career! He has worked so hard to finish up so fast! I am so proud of him! He loved his mission so much! Before he left and we dated almost 5 years ago, he told me that going on a mission was the most important thing to him. When we started talking again after he got home I asked if it was as wonderful as he hoped and he said better! I am so grateful to have such a wonderful husband who loves to follow the Prophet and serve the Lord! Here are a few mission pics. This one is probably my favorite! This was at a ward activity on P-day. There was a little hike into the clearing and he befriended this ward member to walk with, actually the little boy wanted to walk with him, but still precious! I am so glad he loves kids!
Before you think what are all those missionaries doing not dressed to mission standards, let me explain. For a few months of Marc's mission they were a non-proselyting mission. They could not wear anything to identify them with missionary work. It is a long story, so if you really want to know he will tell you, besides, I might mess it up! This was while the missionaries couldn't teach on the street and got to do a little sight seeing!
This is a family that Marc helped bring into the church. The parents were members, but moved out of the city and were not able to attend church. The mom found out that there was a new branch in their city and brought the children to church. Marc was able to help teach and baptize them.
This is the family after the baptism. Look at Marc's Missionary cut! Gotta love it!
I am so happy that Marc is such a great guy! I am so blessed to be his wife and see the changes that he has brought to so many on the other side of the world! He loved his mission so much and grew is so many was from the things he saw and learned while he was there!
