Why didn't you tell me about the underwear?

Salta mission '90-'92

As a missionary I also was Branch President. We had a kid in this small branch that wanted to go on a mission.

I signed his temple recommend and the mission president co-signed.

About 3 months later the mission president says the kid came home early from his mission.

The mission president wanted me to find him and ask him to finish out his mission return or if possible maybe I could convince him to finish out his mission as branch president instead of me.

So we finally track him down and he's not really happy to see us. Especially not me he was really hoping I was gone already.

I asked him to come be branch president and his answer to me was....

Why didn't you tell me about the underwear?

This kid got in a plane to Buenos Aires MTC and he didn't know anything about garments or the temple. Until he got there.

The end, we never saw him at church either.
