Children Return to Farm while Father Leaves for LDS Mission
This article was originally published in Capital Press by John O’Connell. Below is an excerpt.
The past few months have been a crash course in agriculture for 26-year-old Rebecca Loveland.
Her father, Kevin, considered it a privilege he couldn’t refuse when he received an unexpected calling in October to serve The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a mission president.
Rebecca was fresh out of graduate school, having earned a master’s degree  in public administration from Brigham Young University, and had just started a job running business internships with Utah Valley University in Provo. But she’s left that job to manage the family’s 5,000-acre grain and fresh potato farm, while her father spends the next three years training 200 LDS missionaries in Bentonville, Ark.
