I have recently begun showing up at church. I have little shared beliefs but I enjoy feeling the consistency of my upbringing.

Let us know when the bishop calls you in and tells you how much tithing you should be paying.

It was actually while I was AP that it was the highest baptizing mission in Europe.

You clearly did not overlap with me and my leadership of the mighty, highest-baptizing-in-Europe, portugal lisboa missão sul...I personally averaged mor baptisms per month for a six month stretch than the losers in missão Lisboa norte.

what years were you in that mission? one of my best friends served there. He also spent time in Cabo Verde.

Just to provide some context for everyone:

Levin, Majo, and I were best friends in high school. We were also co-valedictorians (although I at least one more AP class than the others). Levin is the only one who still goes to church, but I predict his apostasy.

99.99% sure that's never gonna happen. Can't deny the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.

A bit off topic but I find it strange that so many inactives or apostates talk about their mission performances so many years later. I'm not limiting that to CUF nor am I picking on just the two of you by the way.

In my experiences with apostate siblings and friends it seems to be a recurring theme; whether it's recounting the number of baptisms they had or how strictly they followed the rules or how much their mission president loved them, etc. It's odd considering their otherwise indifference to the church.

No, my friend was not Elder Green.

He died of a horrible asthma attack.

We had a GA come to our stake a few years back who spoke a lot about Russia and loved to say Vladivostok. He told us that several Russian mission presidents had died young and that it may well have been because Russian speakers who were strong in the gospel were needed to teach in the spirit world. He was not joking.

you can't be serious.

On second thought, this type story is entirely appropriate, even necessary, for a thread that Sooner started.
