"In this family we serve missions!": On their way to Albania!!!

“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!”

On their way to Albania!!!

(Miriam Posting) They are finally off. Should currently be on their third flight of the day and landing in Albania very soon! Middle of the night for us at home, middle of the morning for them. I wanted to post a couple of these beautiful pictures that were taken recently.

Here they are with their Albanian name tags on. This picture was taken at the Bountiful temple Saturday night. The perfect night out with the family, just a day after having left the MTC and just a day before flying to their mission.

Elder and Sister Jones!!! It's for real!!!
