Missionary priests and brothers are people as varied as any other group, widely different in interests, temperament and background. This is one of the riches of the priesthood. No missionary priest or brother can in practice be all things to all people: but together they do much better! So do not worry if you are not very much like some other missionaries you know. You may think you are an unlikely person to be a priest or a consecrated brother, but so are most priests, more brothers! The apostles themselves were a motley bunch. What mattered was that Jesus chose them, and they said «Yes».
