153. When Your Mission Takes an Unexpected Turn
This episode of the LDS Mission Podcast features an inspiring interview with Kate Kilpack about her experience serving a service mission after facing unexpected challenges early in her proselyting mission.
Kate Killpack is a diligent missionary who started off her mission in June of 2023 in the Mexico City MTC when her mission experience took a couple of unexpected turns. After struggling with OCD scrupulosity and going through a knee surgery, she has figured out that God sometimes has a different plan for His missionaries.
Kate is from Lindon, Utah and enjoys hiking, skiing, and being in the sun. In the future she hopes to become an elementary school teacher.
Kate shares openly about struggling with OCD scrupulosity and a knee injury in the MTC that led her to transfer to a service mission close to home. She discusses the valuable service she provided in various sites and her journey to regain confidence in herself and her ability to return to proselyting.
Kate offers an insightful perspective and advice for any missionary or returned missionary facing unexpected bumps and turns in their mission or post-mission journey. Her powerful testimony of God's perfect plan and the Atonement's ability to transform our weaknesses will uplift and encourage all listeners.
