Missionary work

Being in Ireland I have been surrounded by missionary work and missionary opportunities daily, some of them I don't see until later but I know I have been more than lucky to tell people about the gospel, and what we believe in. At school someone who went there before me left some weird impressions on people and stuff about our church and so I have been asked ridiculous questions and some of them I just have to laugh at, for example: "are you aloud to talk to boys?", "aren't you not aloud to date until your 18?" " are you aloud to kiss?" "are you aloud to Go to parties, and can you drink and stuff" that one was more serious but some just crack me up, but with the Faloon's in the school now I think we can get a pretty good name to the Mormons, and straighten out some questions. Sometimes when im telling my mom about someone ssking me stuff at school i cant even remeber how I worded something but I know Heavenly Father helped me know what the correct thing to say was. I have also spent a lot of time with the missionaries, they eat at our house all the time and always come with a lesson which I love and then ask us to do something, by doing the simple things challenges they give us I have felt my testimony grow stronger. I have become good friends with the sister missionaries, and last night for mutual they talked to us about why they came on missions, and at first I really just thought heck no am I going to serve a mission but they said something that really hit me "I decided I could leave my family for a short time, to help others be with there families forever." Sister Fisher. After that I felt that this is something I could do, maybe not when I'm 21, but maybe be a senior couple.
