re: #95 SanFranciscoZionist

For some reason, this makes me LOL.

Although my best ‘missionary moment’ was when a friend (Southern Baptist) told me that her new boyfriend had been a missionary to Lithuania.

As Lithuania was converted by St. Casimir in, I think 900 or so, this baffled me somewhat.

“Converted to what?” I asked.

“Christianity,” she said, perfectly seriously.

Sigh. I can’t even laugh. My MiL’s cult (a small holiness movement derived church that was started in the 1880’s though they “go all the way back to Jesus” don’t you know?) sends missionaries to the Ukraine regularly. Of course they’re one of those groups that says only 144,000 will be saved worldwide. :facepalm: Thankfully my father pays little attention to that. But I’m an even worse heathen as an Episcopalian because praying from a prayer book rather than off the cuff is horrible and I don’t accept the primacy of the King James version. :headdesk:
