We got lucky today because the missionaries came over to share a message with our family. We have an elder from Finland who's been out 9 months and an elder from Utah who's been out 4 months. They are awesome, and they brought the Spirit with them into our home.
Guess what is a great way to support missionaries who are not your own? Write home to their parents and let them know what a great job their child is doing.
Wouldn't you love to get a letter like that in the mail if it was your son or daughter?
Umm, okay, I admit the missionaries thought it was a little weird when I asked for their home addresses. I hope they don't think I'm weird stalker lady.
I'm just kidding, I didn't know if it was allowed to ask for addresses or not, so I think I'll just give them the letters in a sealed, stamped envelope and have them address it. How much postage does it take to get a letter to Finland?!

I received letters from a couple of people that David served with. It was wonderful! I even received one phone call from someone who just had to tell me how great my son was. I don't think teenage girls should be asking missionaries for their home address, but if a mom wants to contact the missionary's mom just to give them an update or compliment ....well, it made my whole month!
