We are absolutely thrilled to serve as missionaries, called to serve the young single adults in Spain! We have waited until we were old enough to serve a mission… we have reached that age! We feel so blessed. We come from Carlsbad, California, and have five married children and 14 grandchildren! We love spending time with family, enjoying the beach, traveling, and cooking, but above all, we love our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Loralee speaks Spanish from her mission in Seville, and Dave speaks Dutch from his mission in Belgium. But the most important language we share is the language of the gospel—the language of joy, hope, and love that comes from Jesus Christ! His restored gospel has changed our lives, and we know it can change the lives of all who seek Him. The Book of Mormon is a powerful witness of Christ that will bring you peace and understanding. We invite everyone to read it, pray about it, and come unto Him.

We are so excited to serve in the Spain, Barcelona mission! We hope you enjoy this adventure with us through the Million Little Tender Mercies.
