Meet The Dixon Family

President Sean Romney Dixon is originally from Provo, Utah. He played basketball and tennis before serving a mission to Toronto Canada, Spanish speaking. After returning from his mission he met and married M'Shelle. They met standing in a line in the Traffic Office at BYU. He has a bachelors degree in Family Science and a masters degree in Education. President Dixon has worked for LDS Seminaries and Institutes as a seminary teacher and institute instructor. Most recently he worked as the Area Director for the Utah Valley South Area. M'Shelle Lundquist Dixon is from Bountiful Utah. She loves to dance. She also rides a unicycle. She graduated from BYU in Communications. She and President Dixon both work as directors for BYU summer camps; Especially For Youth and a new camp "Habits for Life" which teaches Covey's "Seven Habits for Highly Effective Teens." The Dixons have five children and have raised their family in Spanish Fork, Utah. Lisie, their only daughter returned from her mission a little over a year ago to Nashville, Tennessee. Jared returned from serving in Mexico, Puebla two months ago. Both are in school at BYU Provo. Rob leaves August 2016 to serve his mission in Barcelona Spain. Their two youngest Brad and Scott will be living with them as they serve in California, Redlands. "We are excited to be here and love the missionaries. We pray for them every day to bring others to a knowledge of the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. We know that this is His work and that He leads it. Our only desire is to serve others and to be instruments to help bring people to a knowledge and understanding of the Lord's great plan of happiness."
