Way below the angels : the pretty clearly troubled but not even close to tragic confessions of a real live Mormon missionary / by Harline, Craig.(CARDINAL)347503;
Prologue: De Brouckère Square -- Visions -- Super model -- The really big hand of Jesus -- Stoned -- In the clouds -- The Great Church Council of Nowhere -- To the lions -- Five-sense gray -- An anthropology of butt-kicking -- Your own pathetic self -- Snow White -- Stoned again -- Big ol' Jed had a light on -- Kyrie flippin' eleison -- Deliverance -- Volo assistantari -- A three-meal kind of guy -- Just one more last cigarette -- In no time -- Out with a thud -- Epilogue: The Chapel of the Madeleine -- Thanksgiving.When Craig Harline set off on his two-year Mormon mission to Belgium in the 1970s, he had big dreams of doing miracles, converting the masses, and coming home a hero. What he found instead was a lot of rain and cold, one-sentence conversations with irritated people, and silly squabbles with fellow missionaries-- a range of experiences that nothing, including his own missionary training, had prepared him for. He also found a wealth of friendships with fellow Mormons as well as unconverted locals and, along the way, gained insights that would shape the rest of his life.

The practice house : a novel / by McNeal, Laura,author.(CARDINAL)395068;
"Nineteen-year-old Aldine McKenna is stuck at home with her sister and aunt in a Scottish village in 1929 when two Mormon missionaries ring the doorbell. Aldine's sister converts and moves to America to marry, and Aldine follows, hoping to find the life she's meant to lead and the person she's meant to love. In New York, Aldine answers an ad soliciting a teacher for a one-room schoolhouse in a place she can't possibly imagine: drought-stricken Kansas. She arrives as farms on the Great Plains have begun to fail and schools are going bankrupt, unable to pay or house new teachers. With no money and too much pride to turn back, she lives uneasily with the family of Ansel Price--the charming, optimistic man who placed the ad--and his family responds to her with kind curiosity, suspicion, and, most dangerously, love. Just as she's settling into her strange new life, a storm forces unspoken thoughts to the surface that will forever alter the course of their lives."--Amazon.com
