Hello everyone! On today’s show, I speak with Allie Gardner who served in the Mexico, Cancun mission from 2014 to 2015. If the name Allie Gardner sounds familiar to you, you’ve probably heard her sing or heard some of her music. Just do a quick youtube search for Allie Gardner and you’ll see that she has performed on Face to Face events, with BYU Noteworthy, and on other Church-related broadcasts. She now is busy preparing for a tour now. But of course, most of our conversation focuses on her mission to Mexico.

And in my missionary minute, I talk about serving a mission with my wife, my daughter, and my grandmother.

--- Listen to the show!!! ---

A big thanks to my friend Allie Gardner. She is doing big things in the world and is a wonderful ambassador for the Church wherever she goes.

And if you haven’t seen the song that I was talking about, search on Youtube for Emmanuel | Witnesses of Christ | Allie Gardner with Wade Farr and Cj Madsen. It’s pretty special.

In today’s missionary minute as Allie was talking about how her grandfather who had passed right before her mission, seemed to be with her in spirit and supporting her during her mission. I had a similar expereince which was really neat. My wife and I were called as ward missionaries and I was the ward mission leader. Our daughter Julienne was serving under Allies parents in Nebraska as a full-time proselyting missionary, and I had the impression as I was studying Preach My Gospel one morning, that Julienne was likely doing the same thing in Nebraska, and that my grandmother, who was on the other side of the veil was likely doing missionary work as well. All of us were sharing the gospel. I wrote Julienne and told her of my impression. I love missionary work, and I’ve been fortunate to have been ward mission leader a couple of times, and it’s the best calling. There is something so amazing about sharing the gospel. I’ve had the experience multiple times where I find myself either quoting scriptures or sharing stories that have come to my mind which I hadn’t planned on sharing. The Spirit guides the discussions and you can feel it testifying. Living rooms become sacred places as the Holy Ghost witnesses the truth.

Well, that’s about it for today’s show.
