You Know You're a Missionary When....


You are walking down a street in Washington DC on vacation and you meet a Maasai in his full traditional dress and nod the Tanzanian way in greeting.






You are checking in for your flight to return to Nairobi Kenya on British Airways from Washington Dulles airport and you discover that the BA attendant is originally from Dar Es Salaam Tanzania.




So you conduct the rest of your check-in in Swahili, he hands you his business card which is written partly in Swahili, and then directs the baggage handler to "treat us well because we are his family".


It can be so much fun when God puts you in contact with people such as these in the most "unlikely places" -- at least we think the places are unlikely but not to God!!
