I am on my grandson's weekly email blast, which comes every Monday morning. Mostly it's the same as all the ones we've seen here. But this morning's had an added fillip to it:
"I've also learned that I should still be myself on my mission, because the Lord prepared me the way He did for a reason. He didn't call me to Argentina just so I could try to completely change my personality in to what I thought it should be as a missionary. I am allowed to use my humor to teach and be my goofball self, and be spiritual when we need to be. It's made this past week so much more enjoyable and I've been able to connect with the investigators better than before. YAY!!"
Then there was this at the end:
"Oh also, my companion sleeps with a knife under his pillow now and I have a metal rod next to my bed because we heard rumors that the same people want to come back and rob us during the night, WE ARE READY!!! MWAHAHA!! But honestly I don't think they're coming back."
