From October 2016 to January 2019 we had been serving a church service mission as technical specialists with the Welfare Department, Humanitarian Services. Our assignment was to help improve the missionary training experience for senior humanitarian missionaries.
About May, 2018 we started getting requests to apply for another mission as a Area Welfare Specialists. They needed experienced couples in Hong Kong and in Germany. We researched both options and received counsel from friends in Humanitarian Services.

In early August after meeting with a close friend regarding the options of both Hong Kong and Germany, we knew that we should go to Germany. We began the application process; filling out forms, getting physicals, and all that fun stuff.
We completed the application process and submitted our papers in September, 2018 and have been moving forward with anticipation.
“We need many, many more senior couples. … Make yourselves available to leave home and give full-time missionary service. There are few times in your lives when you will enjoy the sweet spirit and satisfaction that come from giving full-time service together in the work of the Master.”
President Thomas S. Monson, “As We Meet Together Again,” Ensign, November, 2010.
