Episode 7... Sister Naomi Sayer entered the Austin, Texas Mission just four months ago. She has been serving as a full-time missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. During high school, a popular Primary song inspired her to read the scriptures every morning before starting the day. This helped Sister Sayer grow closer to her Savior and have the courage to go on a mission.  The Parkside Ward has been incredibly fortunate to have such a valiant missionary serving in Central Texas.
