A missionary comic about prayer & faith.

Missionary comic: Late at night in an apartment in Australia, with the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge lit up outside the window, two exhausted elders, one yawning in a striped nightcap, prop their heads in their hands while General Conference plays on a tablet. Caption: “The Church is true. Time zones are not.” — “The Church is true. Time zones are not.”

Conference is broadcast live from Salt Lake City, which can land in the middle of the night on the other side of the world. Missionaries in places like Australia sometimes watch at hours their mission schedule would normally call bedtime. The testimony is strong; the eyelids, less so.
