		<description>Great interview! Great questions (as is usual each podcast) that allow a person who is not familiar with Mormon missions to get a much better idea of what it&#039;s about.
Thanks!</description>

		<description>I enjoyed this interview very much!!  Having been a sister missionary myself I felt Allison did a wonderful job of explaining the experience.  One thing she didn&#039;t mention is that each mission is led by a Mission President and his wife.  They work as a team in supervising and assisting the missionaries.  Also, there are usually several older missionary couples serving in each mission--retired people who help in the mission office, work with the branches (congregations) and also give community service in the areas they are assigned to.  I have been able to serve, first as a single sister in Tennessee--1961-1963, with my husband in Hawaii 2006-2007.  After he passed away, I served as a single sister again in Hungary 2009-2010.  I loved each mission. It&#039;s a win-win experience.</description>
