Senior Couple Missionaries - Making a World of Difference

Yesterday a couple that served as mission presidents (oversaw the full-time missionary work) in the Albania mission (Eastern European country; used to be part of USSR) spoke to us about their time over there. One thing he mentioned is that senior couple missionaries are so valuable in the different church units (branches) over there because it's a first generation church in that country. The senior couple missionaries bring a wealth of knowledge and understanding to church units that have such little information about how the church should run and how to keep people active in the church so that they receive the full blessings of living the gospel. They have 4 senior couples serving over there and would love to have 1 per branch (about 10 total branches in the mission it seemed like).

Serving a mission as a couple when older will be a great blessing for those who serve and are served. I look forward to serving with my wife in the future.

Have a great week.
