Sister Nuttall and Sister Taylor - Faith, love and obedience - the life of a sister missionary

Sister Nuttall and Sister Taylor are missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. At 19 years old, these young women put their entire lives on hold, left their friends and families behind, and volunteered to spend 18 months proselytizing for their faith.
Sister Lilly Nuttall is from San Antonio, Texas. The only girl with two brothers, she did not believe that she would be serving a mission. When a friend decided to go on a mission, and subsequently decided to leave the church, it led Sister Nuttall on her own faith journey. She has now been serving a mission for 4 months.
Sister Hallie Taylor is from Idaho Falls, Idaho. The youngest of three children, she always wanted to go on a mission for the church. That desire grew after she suffered multiple sports injuries in high school. She believes her faith brought her through those difficult times, and she desires to share that same faith with the people she teaches.
Sister Nuttall and Sister Taylor come on the podcast to discuss their stories, talk about the life of a sister missionary, the miracles they have seen through obedience to the (rather stringent) mission rules. They'll also discuss their plans post-mission life and much more.

In that same timeframe, he and his wife Angela have raised a family of four children, which Taylor considers to be his greatest success.
