Lessons learned

Editor's note: I've got a couple of old pirate-themed sketchbook gags that I'm turning in to full cartoons. 

As a missionary, it's great when your investigator actually reads the scriptures. You just hope they're inspired bi the right parts!

Wish list

Investigators rarely come from Amazon, and you're lucky if you can get a package deal!
 

But, wait! There's more!

I'm surprised someone doesn't capitalize on all these great moneymaking ideas I keep putting out there.
 

This time for sure

There was a quote I saw at the Charles M. Schulz Museum that said something like "You can tell someone that you feel just like Charlie Brown and they'll know exactly what you mean."

If you've ever been a missionary and have been dropped by a good investigator, you know exactly what this means.

Rats.
 

Sketchbook: A rose by any other name

For the longest time, an investigator in our ward was known as "the couch lady." It really helps the fellowshipping process if you know their names.
 

Carpe cenam

District meetings should always be about urgent topics. 
 

One ringer to rule them all

Of course it may just say that from every number...

An experiment

So we’re all trying new things while we’re sequestered, right? I’m experimenting with a couple of drawing apps. It’s not quite where I want to be yet, but I’ve done worse!.

A starred review

Which is probably why missionaries have limited access to computers. I can only imagine what kinds of ratings they'd give to the zone leaders!

Sketchbook: And not a good one at that

You've probably heard the joke, "What do you call an alligator wearing a vest? An in-vest-i-gator." And then nobody laughs.

Personally, I've never heard of anyone trying to teach an alligator anything!

When there's something strange in your neighborhood

When you get ghosted, you've gotta find out why!

Sometimes it's easy

There are times you can tell that someone is ready!

Thanks to faithful reader Christy for this idea!

Oppa Pyongyang Style!

I think there are many missionaries who could tell you that there are all kinds of, um, interesting investigators.

Without a doubt, it's one of the most disappointing things that one experiences as a missionary.
