Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

I just received an email from a former missionary with whom I served in the New York Rochester Mission. They’re planning a mission reunion for the summer of 2009 in Huntsville, Utah. We haven’t had a reunion in years, but this presents me with a quandary: should I attend a mission reunion?

On the one hand, it would be interesting to catch up with old friends, and I could also use it as an excuse to visit family in the area. On the other hand, I can only imagine the potential for uncomfortable situations.

Elder Blake, would you offer a prayer on our refreshments?

Should I go and hope it never comes up? :roll: Would it even be worth the risk of spoiling the event for everyone? I guess I have a long time to think about it.
