​The second major event is  on the same date and time, our greatly loved directors, Elder Michael Mickelson and Sister Janice Mickelson was released from the three year mission they have successfully served.

They were warmly honored the Friday evening before at the SGFSL Quarterly Mission Conference in several heart touching ways; some before and some after they were asked to share their own thoughts and experiences. There was an over-flowing gathering made up of nearly everyone who had worked under their leadership.


They will always be lovingly remembered because of their examples of kindness and determination to be effective in their calling. They were never idle; rather always sharing, helping, teaching, learning, preparing, fixing, or planning for the next special event. If you were looking for them, you might try their office, but you would rarely find them there. Your best bet was to look around among our patrons and missionaries. They were usually out there giving, teaching or welcoming in one way or another – a remarkable example for the rest of us. We are sad to see them go, but we want them to know that it has been a special experience to serve with them. We send them with our love and friendship and remind them that the doors to the new St. George FamilySearch Center will always be open for them.
