My Hallmarks of a Missionary

Hey, thanks for sharing your ideas on the characteristics of a missionary!  Feel free to keep commenting....

These are my hallmarks right now, or what I view as really important to keep us sane: 

• Prayer warrior-  Our first weapon when we are without a clue and without strength (which is pretty much every day).

• Resilience -or just being really thick-skulled and not quitting even when things are very tough.

• Major Flexibility- and I’m not talking ability to do the splits (thankfully).  I’m talking about the ability to go to the bathroom in really gross conditions. The ability to change plans at a moment's notice and welcome in an uninvited guest for lunch. 

• A deep love for people of different cultures, beliefs and perspectives. 

• MacGuyverish  -That's being ingenuous and creative with few resources, for those of you who are too young to have watched the show.
