I still think of them as Lady Missionaries...
I got the email today... I went to the church's website, mormon.com, to ask about the Pearl of Great Price, only to become quite frustrated. I put Pearl of Great Price in the search bar and here's what I got:
https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/comeuntochrist/search-results/?lang=eng&query=the+pearl+of+great+priceI went to all the pages of this response, and NOTHING was on topic!
Then I was offered the chance to talk with a rep. But that resulted in a message that all the reps were busy, and did I want to leave an email address, with my question? I took them up on the offer, and now, two days later, the email from the sister missionaries arrived:

Hi EOD! This is Genecca and Siulepa, we are missionaries from the comeuntochrist.org. We received your chat that you asked about "What is the Pearl of Great Price." So, we would love to answer your question.
The Pearl of Great Price includes extracts from Joseph Smith’s Translation (inspired version) of the Bible, as well as a translation of some Egyptian papyri containing the writings of the prophet Abraham, excerpts from Joseph Smith’s testimony and history, and the Articles of Faith of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Have you read about the Pearl of Great Price before?
We would love to hear from you soon!
Genecca and Siulepa
Naturally, I responded and didn't tell a single lie! I ended my little missive with:
Take care of yourselves, and don't die in your sleep!!

What are the odds that they'll respond?
