How We Got Here


Serving a mission together fulfills a lifelong dream for both of us! Ralph joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints while a student at UCLA. After graduation he was called for two years to the Guatemala-El Salvador mission. Today that same area is covered by seven missions.

Jolene is a life-long member who wanted to serve a mission after high school but Ralph found her before she got to age 21. She put her mission desires on hold for 37 years until we could serve together.

We will begin our service together when we enter the Missionary Training Center in Provo on March 5, 2012. On March 10 we will fly down to “The Land of Eternal Springtime” to begin our 18 month service in the Guatemala City Central Mission presided over by Joseph and Emily Brough.
