Carole McRae has been a part of my relationship with Mike from the beginning but I met her for the first time last December. When Mike and I were dating and over the years I have heard lots of stories about Carole because she was an important part of Mike's mission to Eastern Canada. Mike baptized Carole's husband. I have heard so many stories about how people were always drawn to Carole; how she fellowshipped in the mission; how she helped the missionaries with kindness and refferals; how hard she worked in the church organization. Over the years Mike and Carole have touched bases on occasion through letters and phone conversations and lately via e-mail. A few years ago Mike and I actually took a trip back to Montreal to visit the mission haunts but Carole and her new husband were on a couple mission to the Ivory Coast at the time and so we did not connect. Last December Carole and her husband made a trip to Utah and we were able to have them to dinner and spend an evening in the mission journals and scrapbooks trading stories. Carole has become my friend also and I wanted to introduce her in this picture that we took when she visited our home with her husband Gary. They are both an inspiration and a testimony of how God magnifies good people.
