#51 –A Conversation with Marie Owens

Welcome to the #ShareYourHotness Podcast Episode 51!

I HAD NEVER MET MARIE OWNES BEFORE THIS SHOW. :) I'm not kidding.

But, that's no reason to not be curious and thoughtful about this person's life. See, we have something in common: We're both Missionary Moms!

She was raised in Oklahoma, and currently lives in Arizona with her husband and their 5 children. She has a master’s degree in music, with emphasis on piano and viola. She has been a seminary teacher, and is currently teaching institute. She loves learning new things, creating good music, cooking and baking for others, spending time in the mountains, and traveling and exploring new places.

She has twin daughter's out serving right now. One is in Paraguay, and the other arrived in Uruguay a few weeks ago, after having spent half her mission in her reassignment of Arkansas and Missouri. Though very hard to leave 'her mission,' she went to Uruguay with faith, and has been received with tremendous amounts of love---as are all missionaries right now, since the country recently opened up to missionaries. Her twins are so happy to be back in the same hemisphere!

Marie served a mission in Dallas, and her husband served in England. She is one of 8 children, who all served missions, including the 4 girls. Her grandparents were called to serve in New Zealand before they were even married, or engaged! They left Idaho for SLC, where they were sealed in the temple, then headed off to NZ for 3 years.

Needless to say, missionary work is very much a part of her DNA. :)
