You May Be a Missionary If . . .

Here is a fun list that a bunch of us missionaries contributed to on Facebook. I have to say, we've experienced all these things. Let's see how well you do :)

You may be a missionary if . . .

it takes all day to pay your electric bill because the power went out at the utility company.

you open Christmas cards and gifts on Valentine's Day (because that's when they arrived).

a police officer stops you on the road because he needs lunch money.

the word itineration sends you into convulsions or cold-sweats.

you think stop signs and red lights are more of a suggestion.

you have to ask if you can flush the toilet paper.

you have to buy baking soda at the pharmacy.

you're not sure which side of the road to drive on.

when shopping in the US you wonder how much an item costs in pesos.

your prayer request for visa approval has nothing to do with a credit card.

you wonder why the security guards at Walmart in the US don't carry M-16's.

when filling out college applications your kids ask you, what's our home address?

you can buy bananas, credits for your phone, and bottled water without leaving your car.

your German Schnauzer is actually Mexican.
