When I served senior single missionaries usually served with another sister as a regular proselyting sister. I learned a new thing today.

The Senior Single missionaries. This groups is only a minor factor of a mission. It give the single/widowed/divorced something to do. It is a very lonely experience and there are very few times when they qualify for most of the questions. Most do not teach; most do not prosletyze; most do not have companions as elders/sisters/couples. It is a very lonely experience. I worked in the office and was not included in the comings and goings of the couple missionaries. They had their own thing going with getting together and connecting. I interacted with the elders and sister missionaries in the office and I dearly love that age group and their personalities. Single older women in the church are really second class citizens. It remains such in the mission field.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
