                 Elder Chris & Sister Sharon White

Minnesota Minneapolis Mission 

We have been called to serve in the Minnesota Minneapolis Mission as office worker missionaries.  Sharon will serve as the mission secretary and Chris the financial director.  We will serve for 18 months. 

The mission office is located in Bloomington MN which is a suburb south of Minneapolis. The mission is one of the largest missions geographically within the US covering the entire state of Minnesota, parts of western Wisconsin and into Onterio Canada. It has about 200 fulltime missionaries serving.  Due to the cold temperatures most, if not all, missionaries drive cars. So, that means there are approximately 100 vehicles and 100 apartments to manage.  I think we will be busy. 

We arrived at the mission home/office on Wednesday 30 March after a three-day drive of 1,600 miles.  After meeting with President Richardson and his wife, Lisa Richardson, we were off to our new home.
