oklds Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 When my Family go Baptized, my 11-yo Daughter asked the Mission President during her interview, "How long would the Baptism take." He told her probably 45 minutes to an hour, since there were going to be a lot of people there. She came out of the office visibly shaken, and ran to her Mother and hugged her. When she started weeping and informed my Wife that she could not get Baptized, Tammy led her into one of the classrooms to find out what was wrong. She returned within 1 minute, barely able to control herself, and ran outside into the parking lot. I assumed there was something seriously wrong, and followed her outside where she had erupted into gales of laughter. It seems my Daughter didn't think she could hold her breath underwater for 45 minutes, let alone a whole hour. zil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While they aren't interstate travel, they are built to interstate standards which qualifies them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oklds Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) So, one day the Bishop decided to go and visit an elderly widow member who hadn't been in Church for a while. He rounded up a few Missionaries to show them the ropes', and went on over. When they arrived, the Missionaries proceeded to snack on a bowl of peanuts the woman had sitting on the living room table, while the Bishop counseled the member. She told him there was no problem, just that she had been feeling poorly, but would be back that coming Sonday. Relieved and gratified at a job well done, the Bishop turned to leave, and noticed that the Missionaries had eaten every single one of the old widow's snacks. The Bishop and the Missionaries all apologized profusely, and promised to go immediately and get her some more. She replied, "That's okay, Bishop. Ever since I lost all my teeth, all I can do is suck the chocolate off of them anyway." Edited March 13, 2018 by oklds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The little old man looked at the pastor and calmly said, 'Well, she's there.' I am anticipating the death of a very troubling elderly relative. I do hope that the eternities do not chose to return her! Edited March 13, 2018 by Sunday21 zil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on just how troubling this relative is, the eternities may not return her until the final resurrection at the end of the millennium.

I am betting on mid-period resurrection. Just think in the next life, my job may be minding other people’s difficult relatives. I hope we get Sundays off! . zil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
