Chris is reading.......

"101 Things That You Should Do Before Your Retire"

by David Bordon and Tom Winters. Interestingly enough, the first idea is "Jump-Start Your Spiritual Life". Here's a quote from this idea: "Don't let the daily hustle and bustle keep you from making your spiritual life a priority. It's the only investment you can make that extends into retirement and beyond to life after life, enriching and enlightening along the way." p. 13 So our idea to serve a mission may be just the ticket......and Bruce's mini-mission at the LDS Storehouse is a great stepping stone. We continue to add to our mission fund each month. And some of our kids do too, instead of buying us birthday or other gifts.

That's awesome! Harvey and I are planning on missions, too! I haven't talked to anyone who hasn't absolutely loved serving - and it sounds like "senior" missions are extra special.
