Brooke Swanson served in the Korea Seoul South Mission where she ended up meeting her future husband. They reconnected after the mission and now that is something very special that they share! Brooke shares about her experiences in Korea- her miracles, fun experiences, and difficult experiences. We talk about baptism and agency and how agency is central to God's plan, even though it can be hard to see people you love choose a different path. She also shares some great advice about being yourself as a missionary. Bring your best pre-mission self with you on the mission and when you return home, bring pieces of your missionary self back home with you! Brooke is amazing and it was so fun talking to her about her mission! I know you will enjoy listening as much as I did!
