Are there any ex-missionaries here??

by fulano in

i have been a missionary in the dominican republic for almost 10 years and i was wondering if there were any ex-missionaries on this forum.. i am back in my country now for 3 years and totally inactive.. what i noticed in those missionary-years was the lack of spiritual interest among the missionaries.. discussions were about rooms, cars and greater responsibilities, the bad territory.

and the local c.o.s and d.os.. was this only in the dr or are there other experiences??.

ere other experiences?

Welcome fulano!

Could you tell us how Pete Paschal is doing?

What Should I Say ?

.

i'll be speaking this week at a memorial service for my father, and would like to include passages from the bible which are uplifting and comforting, but which do not refer to god or jesus or have an overt religious message or overtone.

i would appreciate very much if members would suggest passages they believe would be appropriate.. joe.

Dino

Joseph, I am sorry to hear of your father's death.

I hope that your happy memories of him sustain you in your grief.

Perhaps you could tie in Genesis chapter 50, which describes Joseph's intense sorrow over Jacob's death. In addition, the Egyptians, which did not worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob mourned for seventy days out of regard for Joseph.

Our thoughts are with you.
