In this heartfelt episode, we delve into the deeply personal and often painful experience of serving as a missionary abroad while dealing with the health decline of parents back in the United States. 

Through candid and personal stories, Jason and Gary explore the emotional and logistical challenges that come with being oceans away during such critical times. 

This isn't a one-size-fits-all guide but a close look at how a missionary navigates these turbulent waters. 

We hope to provide comfort, understanding, and encouragement to others in similar situations, offering insights into maintaining a solid spiritual walk, fulfilling duties, and handling guilt and grief while committed to a mission far from home. 

Tune in for a powerful discussion that seeks to support and inspire those facing this tough balancing act.
