Why? Most probably don't even consider it. The thought has simple never crossed their mind. It's not bad, it just is. I got the idea to meet missionaries overseas directly (I believe) from God. I didn't think of it and to my knowledge no one put the thought in my head. Therefore, it is just something that happened. Since I believe that information came from God, it would be difficult to assume other Christians would get that same message, or at least the same message the same way I got it.
Yet I did get that message, and it's something I've enjoyed doing. I get to have a finger on the pulse of missions, get to strengthen my own faith, and get to see parts of a city that most people don't get to see.

Some of my fondest memories of my time in the Navy came out of visiting missionaries in the ports we visited. We had great times and spread the gospel at while we did it. What a blessing it was for all of us.
Sometimes I wonder how much of the Gospel was being presented. I know we really helped a lot in Thailand, but overall, I saw it as a support for missionaries, not a direct spreading of the Gospel. Is that how you remember it?
