Jimmy’s New Book: Mormon Mission Prep
Over the past two years, Jimmy has been supporting a Mormon Mission Prep site. He felt compelled to write a book about the practical and spiritual prep for future missionaries. Specifically geared towards teenagers, young adults, and even parents, and leaders, it’s a quickie read with a lot of helpful and inspiring information. Good work my love!
Hannah and Abe were quite impressed that “Dad wrote a book?!” When we went to pick up the printed version, Abe said, “I have a great idea. Dad could make lots of copies of his book and sell them. He could charge like $4.” Great idea buddy… only we’ll have to charge at least enough to cover printing fees. Anyhoo… they were proud of their papa (and glad to keep going to BYU’s print shop because they got icecream and donuts!)
On the drive home from BYU the other day, the kids asked Dad to tell them a story. So Jimmy told them a bunch of stories about his mission to Rosario, Argentina. They realized how much we have… a home with solid walls, air conditioner, a car, running water, carpet, etc. They loved all the stories he told them about the people, eating bugs, riding the bus and not knowing much Spanish at first. It was like good old-fashioned fun without media/entertainment in the car… just the fam talking and telling stories. Good times.
Thats awesome he wrote a book.. can we buy it somewhere like deseret book or something yet? I have a nephew getting ready to go on a mission, he graduates next week and his brother is on a mission now in Mendoza Argentina. I didn’t kow your hubby went to Argentina.. pretty cool :0)
How exciting! What a great and WORTHWHILE accomplishment! I loved my mission…as they say, one of the greatest and hardest things I’ve ever done. (Kind of like being a mother!)
That’s so neat! Wow! What a great man you have Heath, but of course he would be to marry you! So jealous of your 70’s weather and all your fun in your yard!
