Being a missionary is a great responsibility! The missionary must have great energy, fortitude and courage. Wherever the issionary goes, in whatever part of the world he is in, he must spread the Word. The local people must understand what the missionary is saying to them. The missionary must get the Word right to the people! Therefore, every missionary must know the language of the local people! To everyone who is going on a mission or preparing for one I would like to recommend a very good workshop by Yuriy Ivantsiv Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language. This excellent book will give you answers how to correctly learn a foreign language with a minimum of your time and effort. This book answers many of the questions that everyone faces when learning a language. Good luck with your important work!
Congrats to you - never been a missionary there but have been many times to Russia for business. Russian people are some of the most genuine people you'll find out there.
I know you’re only allowed to write home on certain days of the year, so do people usually hope to go somewhere miles away as if you got somewhere close to home you couldn’t speak to your family anyway?! Xx
Wrote home once every week. Then got to do a phone call on Christmas Day. That was 20 years ago though, not sure if you can communicate more now through Zoom etc, once a week instead of writing?
hey! i recently got waitlisted by nyu and i saw that you were waitlisted last year and eventually got in. is it okay if i dm you on instagram or any other social media and ask a few questions?
Most missionaries are reassigned to missions in their home countries until borders in their assigned countries are re-opened. Throughout the pandemic missionaries have moved to and from missions in their home countries and assigned countries as covid allows :)
This is the best mission call I have ever seen!
