New Zealand Missionaries Helping Baby Ducklings out of a storm drain.

Due to a comment posted, I have modified the title of this video and will leave out which denomination we belonged to and will leave it to the viewers to determine what church we represented..... Description: My companion and I found a mother duck in distress standing over a storm drain where each of her baby ducklings fell through the grate. We decided to assist in helping them get out. Enjoy!

Guatemalan joke: "Como se llama Mormones? Huevitos, porque siempre andan dos, blancos, y uno mas grande grande y uno mas chiquito." (It may be you have to see the missionaries walking around your neighborhood to get this but it cracks up Latin Americans.)

@strandwolf I can appreciate that you kept the jokes clean. White eggs huh?

[dbyankee27]

Yeah there was no doubt that she was stressed that we were there. I felt bad because I figured she thought we were going to harm her ducklings which is why I took it kind of slow. I'm glad we were able to help them out of the drain... That was one of my last couple days in New Zealand after I had been there for nearly two years... Now its been almost 5 years since I was there... This was one of many very memorable and cherished moments I had in Aotearoa. Such an amazing place!

This was a wonderful, kind thing for these young men to do. Kudos, guys!

@strandwolf I am not dodging your question. My answer may be seemingly vague but the whole idea of getting our own galaxy seems too assumptive. I don't believe there is a galaxy out there with my name on it, but I do believe that God (who I believe to the the Eternal Father) loves ALL of His children beyond our worldly comprehension.

[dbyankee27]

@strandwolf His own galaxy? I wouldn't say that. I'll touch on this lightly so as to avoid discussing a subject that we may not fully understand. We believe in Eternal life. We believe in I loving Creator, a Heavenly Father. We believe Him to be the creator of this Universe and all things in it. Just as any loving father would want his children to experience the same joy and happiness that he has, We believe our Heavenly Father wants the same for us. Hope that answers your question.

@dbyankee27 Sorry to have pressured you. Your title was harmless enough, & I know that your religion is denigrated by a contingent of outsiders, sometimes unfairly. I have met and even traveled with LDS members and had a great time. Nice folks they were, as far as I could tell. Not to open the proverbial can of worms, but I am an atheist. I find it mindboggling, the weird beliefs I've heard about. Do you believe that every decent male Mormon upon death inherits his own galaxy? haha.

@dbyankee27 Very clean! Except that "eggs" is slang for...well, take a guess.

[dbyankee27]

@strandwolf I made a change to the title. Leaving in "missionaries" doesn't specify any particular denomination and changing the title doesn't change who I am. If at any point you had a negative encounter with other people of my faith, then I apologize. We are taught to show kindness (with no reward or recognition expected in return) and have charity for others (which we believe to be the pure love of Christ). I hope you enjoy the video regardless of your opinion of the LDS faith.

[strandwolf]

@dbyankee27 Fine...but then why was the therefore superfluous info put in the title? Prove your assertion by editing out, if you would, the first 2 words, please.

There are some messed up people in this world and that is evident by the postings some people have put up here. This is a great video, real cute in fact seeing the little ducklings get outta the drain. Awesome stuff. It's sad losers post negative thoughts. Well we know who has mental issues :)
