“We need thousands of more couples serving in the missions of the Church. Every mission president pleads for them. They…can leave the grandchildren. Those little darlings will be just fine, and I promise you will do things for them in the service of the Lord that, worlds without end, you could never do if you stayed home to hover over them. What greater gift could grandparents give their posterity than to say by deed as well as word, “In this family we serve missions!”

Ford reminds me of my brother, Marc, who served a mission in England. When  President Ford served a mission in London, Richard Eyer was his mission president at age 29!! Pres. Ford is a former Area Seventy and has made great improvements in the mission!
He has a huge job: 4 countries, 3 different languages, 3 different money systems..border crossings  ect.!!!!!
