Does anyone here remember the church's push to get missionaries to go out and find "golden families," a family where the man is employed, the mother at home, and nice kids, all of whom listen to the missionary lessons, and join the church. My comp and I found one such family in Lugano, Switzerland back in 1969, and since no one had been baptized there in years, we got quit famous for it.
Today seems like a different matter. Best I know, is that missionaries are left with the undereducated, the mentally problematic, the poor, and the undocumented. I think that the only people who get baptized in today's Italy are the undocumented Nigerian and Senegalese immigrants. Ditto the rest of the European countries.
Anyone see any golden families lately?
