Mission Info

Here's just a little information about the "Alaska: Anchorage Mission". This mission covers all of Alaska and part of the Yukon Territory. Michelle will serve for 18 months and could be sent anywhere within the mission. For the most part though, "Sister" missionaries serve in the bigger towns and cities.

For those of you that do not know, Missionaries fund their own missions. Michelle has been working two jobs all this year to save for her mission. I'm a pretty proud dad.

Before Michelle heads to Alaska, she'll spend three weeks in the Provo, Utah, Missionary Training Center (MTC). She reports to the MTC on November 8th, 2006. There she will spend most of the day studying and preparing to serve.

On October 26th (I'm kind of going backwards here... ) Michelle will be flying up here to spend time with family before she goes into the MTC. She will be speaking in church on October 29th at 11:00 am. At 7:00 pm there will be an open house for her at her Grandma & Grandpa Barrett's home. All are invited to both.
