Men on a mission

Life is about to return to normal for Alex Denney.

Next week, he will leave Three Forks and fly home to Chesapeake, Va., after two years as a Mormon missionary in the church's Montana Mission.

He has spent those years in towns like Hardin and Lakeside, Lewistown and Livingston. He hasn't seen his hometown in that entire time and has only phoned his family there a handful of times.

\"When you're on a mission, you're focused on your mission,\" he said. \"Your life is on hold.\"
