Service Activity with the Missionaries

Last night we had a fun activity helping the missionaries in our ward create calendars. It's a project they are going to introduce on Sunday to encourage the ward members to seek out missionary opportunities over the next three weeks. One of the sister missionaries split the youth up into companionships and gave each companionship an assignment. I liked that because a lot of our youth are fairly new to the church and their families haven't sent anyone on a mission yet, so it gave them a glimpse into one aspect of mission life.

At one point during the activity one of the young women told me that she was tired. I asked her, "Do you know what missionaries do when they feel tired?" "What?" "They keep working anyway."
