Author Note
My name is Bryan Trent and I'm this site's owner and admin. I served in the Chile Osorno Mission from 1993-1995 and love telling missionary stories. So, I decided to make a blog to share them before they are forgotten, and to allow other former missionaries to do the same. This blog site is completely FREE for use as a resource and to share your stories as long as you are not publishing content for profit. Easily share posts and content on social networking websites like Facebook and Twitter, or send content via email.
