Scott Nelson added the following post:
While at a funeral recently, Kris and I were able to talk about the church to the Medved family. We told them about our son, Josh who is on a mission in Paris, France. They were very interested and favorable in their thoughts of having somebody as young as 19 make a decision to take two years out of his life to teach about the gospel. One of the family members actually wished that all young men at that age would do that, as it matures them and helps them understand what they're about. They were curious about his activities and whether he was able to choose where he serves and seemed very surprised when they were told that they are assigned to a specific area. I felt the conversation served as a bridge between different religions and customs. We were able to see a Catholic funeral service and mass and this sharing of our beliefs was a great way to end the day.
