LDS Pro Golfers Help Send Hundreds of Zimbabweans on Missions

When our daughter, Michaela, was in the MTC in Johannesburg, South Africa two months ago, we thought something was quite mysterious. Almost every other missionary with her was from Zimbabwe. Not only that, they seemed to know each other like high school friends who shared the same stories. 

How did this happen that so many missionaries from Zimbabwe (or Zim as they like to call it) should be entering the mission field at once? 

We found out just a few days later when we met three very high profile LDS professional golfers from the Ladies European Tour, Reeve Nield, Laurette Maritz and Cecilie Lundgreen who started a remarkable, nearly unprecedented project.
