Park Worthington was born and raised in Idaho. He served a mission in the Franco-Belgian Mission from 1965 to 1968 without any language training beforehand. Since marrying Susan in 1974, the two have lived in all four time zones in the lower 48: Orem, Utah; San Diego, California; Lexington, Kentucky; and finally Wichita, Kansas, where they settled in 1984. (They spent almost two years in Dodge City before moving to Wichita in 1986.)

Over the years, they raised two children—Courtney and Chip—and Park earned three degrees: a BA from BYU, a technical degree from the University of Chicago Hospitals & Clinics, and a Master’s degree from WSU. They also had the privilege of serving in the Kansas Wichita Mission office for two years, first with President and Sister Bell for just under a month, and then with President and Sister McQuistion for the remainder of that time.

For more than a decade, they’ve enjoyed working in the Oklahoma City Temple and also served in the Kansas City Temple while Oklahoma City was being refurbished. For the past six-plus years, they’ve served as shift coordinators in the OKC Temple. In recent years, Park has had the joy of getting to know six of his eight half-siblings who live in Idaho and Washington. Most importantly, Park and Susan are just regular folks.

Hyrum Atkinson was born in Udall, Kansas, and spent much of his youth moving frequently, rarely living in one place for more than a year or two. He is one of seven children and grew up in the middle of a busy, lively home with a devoted single mother who raised six of the siblings; one of his older sisters lived with their father. Hyrum has two older sisters, an older brother, two younger sisters, and a younger brother. From a young age, he developed a fascination with creating and building, nurturing a desire to become a maker capable of bringing ideas to life through hands-on creativity.

Although a full-time mission didn’t feel right for him at age eighteen, the decision not to go left Hyrum feeling somewhat isolated, and he eventually stopped attending church. Several years later, seeking direction and new challenges, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. Stationed primarily at Camp Pendleton in California, he also deployed to Bahrain. Before joining the Marine Corps, he had worked in a variety of blue-collar positions, driven by a personal goal to understand every step of building a home. These experiences shaped both his work ethic and his appreciation for practical skill and craftsmanship.

After his military service, Hyrum began regularly attending church again, an important milestone in his personal spiritual path. During this period of transition, he spent some time working as an asphalt inspector, piddling around in the field while considering his next steps. Ultimately, he decided to pursue further education and enrolled at Wichita State University, where he is now studying mechanical engineering. His love of creating continues to grow, and he has become deeply involved in 3D printing both as a hobby and as a developing skill he hopes to integrate into a future business venture.

Hyrum currently serves as the second counselor in the Wichita YSA bishopric and as a temple ordinance worker. He previously served on the stake high council.

Kristen Bailey grew up in South Jordan, Utah, surrounded by the love of her parents and two siblings. Even though not all of her family members were active in the Church, Kristen developed a deep and abiding love for the gospel of Jesus Christ at a young age. Her parents, especially her mother, supported her in her faith—making sure she attended church each Sunday and occasionally staying with her during meetings.

After high school, Kristen felt a strong desire to serve a mission. Her mother even guessed correctly where she might be called. Kristen received her assignment to serve in the Nauvoo, Illinois Visitors’ Center, which included Carthage, and later spent eight months in the Georgia Atlanta North Mission. Her mission became a defining experience, strengthening her testimony of the Restoration, her love for the Savior, and her understanding of Heavenly Father’s love for all His children.

When she returned home, Kristen pursued her education—first at BYU–Idaho and then at Wichita State University, where she graduated with a bachelor’s degree in graphic design. She moved to Kansas to date her best friend, Jason, and their friendship grew into something eternal. On July 29, 2006, they were sealed in the Nauvoo Temple. After years of waiting and struggling with infertility, they were joyfully blessed with twin daughters, who have been a source of light and happiness ever since.

Motherhood has brought Kristen immense joy. She worked part-time from home while raising her girls, and in those early years, she was deeply grateful for the love and support of family, friends, and ward members who eagerly helped with two newborns. Eventually, she chose to become a full-time stay-at-home mom, cherishing the chance to watch her daughters grow. Now that they are in middle school, she has returned to working part-time as a graphic designer outside the home.

In addition to her love for family and faith, Kristen enjoys riding her bike along the river, playing games with her family, camping, and spending time outdoors. She also has a creative spirit, often finding joy in painting and other artistic projects.

Throughout her life, Kristen has remained steadfast in her love for the gospel of Jesus Christ. She has served in many callings—including Young Women, Relief Society, and Primary—and finds special joy in ministering. For her, one of life’s greatest blessings is the opportunity to love, serve, and befriend those in her ward family.
