Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have! I'm happy to help. 😊👍🏻

Olivia today is returning from her 3 month outbound to NY City, and is so excited to get back 'home' to Temple Square... she has loved her mission so much, so grateful to have served on Temple Square and NY. Home March 2019, so only a few months left... it has been the most treasured experience of her life. Your words Rachael are so profound and true, thanks for sharing. :-)

Lovely, sister. 🕊

Thanks Rebecca, Olivia finished her mission last month (served 19mths after extending), she absolutely loved her time whilst serving,... hard to keep her away... Yesterday Olivia flew back to SLC from the UK, to spend a few weeks visiting again (as an RM now) taking lots of treats for her companions and friends on Temple Square, she's staying with her two sisters who are at BYU Provo... instagram.com/oliviadeighton/

Hi Kayla, she's really having the most wonderful time, serving people and teaching whilst at Temple Square, she's really come to appreciate so many things, so many nationalities, languages. They teach lots of Mandarin, Spanish and English, so many large tourist groups arrive by bus, often presenting in tours to 50-60 people at a time... our Olivia never imagined herself doing such beforehand but she's found an inner confidence she didn't realise she had.

There was more, watch till the end! :-)

Hi Cindy, No offence was intended. Olivia had just spent end of last year 4 months in Australia, working as a live-in English Nanny, she loved it there. She's the type to feel happy and go wherever she was called, yet there is no Australia Tasmania Mission, it doesn't exist, Tasmania falls under the Australia Melbourne Mission. Olivia loves that she's been called to SLC Temple Square Mission, she's very excited, she'd be excited for wherever she was called. I appreciate whilst it may seem a 'cruel' joke/prank, it was her younger sister and I whom together put our little scheme together. Our sense of humour is not to everyone's liking, but you'd have to know our family to know 'how we work’. Olivia is very happy and not upset at all, it was certainly a memorable Mission call, which she celebrated after happily with her family and friends. Her older sister Sophia is currently serving in the Ohio Columbus Mission and returns to BYU Provo early next year. This means rather than not seeing each other for almost 3 years, they will be reunited is SLC, as Temple Square is the only Mission in the world where immediate family are permitted to visit and have a tour and dinner with their serving Missionary. Thanks for your concern, I understand why. All the best, John :-)

Apologies I was signed in as our daughter Sophia, sorted her Gmails out... (whose serving in Columbus Ohio), I should have posted that from my account... All the best, John.

I think her dad knew her well enough to know how she'd react. She took it very well. I thought it was hilarious.

Not a trick, here's what happened: Sometime shortly after the original mission assignment, the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles saw a photo of Olivia, and they saw a photo of her, they check out a lot of things about her including her measurements (she looks like she's 36-24-36), it's obvious she's very pretty, and since the Temple Square Mission is reserved for the most gorgeous of young ladies that's where they put her. You wouldn't want an overweight sister serving in the Temple Square Mission, do you?

@@elderbroomhead2671if this is really true, how sick that they only call pretty girls to temple square. Do you think God works in that way? Ya know, if she wasn't in a cult, she could pray and receive inspiration directly from God and know she was needed somewhere to actually do some good rather than be a "pretty" saleswoman for a multi billion dollar corporation. And on her own dime none ther less. By their fruit you will know them... Meaning a corporation who use people for their own self interest is showing awful fruit.

I kind of agree. Suddenly the video was about the joke more than it was about the young lady opening her mission call.

You must be fun.

I just understand their importance, petal.

I agree so much. Neither of my children served a mission because they both went inactive at about 14. A great sadness to me and I think that the fake calls are such a shame. It may well be that she took it well on camera, but what did she really feel deep down only she knows. Some things are very precious and sacred and a decision to serve the Lord is wonderful. Sometimes this stupid PRANK thing with these callings goes too far.
