Great idea. I love the thought of all the behind the scenes talk between mission presidents, making deals to trade a bunch of older elders/sisters with expiring 'contracts', to move up in the draft. And of course you'll have the arrogant #1 pick, who's obviously going to get picked by the stateside mission president, who will refuse to go there and demand to be traded.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View Post

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

I think the church should stay with the current process of having a computer program determine the best fit for each missionary and then have the auto-pen sign the call. I don't think I could sit through a weekly draft that lasts 4 days.Originally posted by Northwestcoug View Post"Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

What? ? I thought there was giant map that the prophet used the urim and thumin to guide him for each call.

Originally posted by Northwestcoug View PostA couple of other times as the process moved along, Elder Eyring would turn to me and say, “Well, Brother Rasband, where do you feel this missionary should go?” I would name a particular mission, and Elder Eyring would look at me thoughtfully and say, “No, that’s not it!” He would then continue to assign the missionaries where he had felt prompted.
Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

So the sister missionaries in my ward are causing some issues. They are apparently attending YW instead of Relief Society. I guess they just show up, uninvited, to YW opening exercises and have been rotating through the YW classes. The YW leaders didn't seem to phased the first time, but over the past month they just keep showing up. Makes me wonder if they just feel more comfortable in YW since they really aren't that far removed from it. It also doesn't help that they are helplessly socially awkward."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

I don't think that is a sister missionary issue, as I have heard of lots of young women having a hard time with the transition from the YW program to Relief Society. Which is probably one of the reasons most people that age go to single wards.Originally posted by Moliere View Post"Friendship is the grand fundamental principle of Mormonism" - Joseph Smith Jr.Comment

Can we start a new thread entitled "Rumors of 19 year old males getting judgmental looks because they aren't on a mission yet"?
That seems to be a new trend....Comment
