I'm glad you found some help for the remainder of your items. Mormon missionaries are great and come in quite handy at times. So often I hear people giving missionaries a hard time and complaining about how they're just out to convert everyone. But the majority of the ones I've encountered (quite a few when it seemed my family was set on converting me) tend to be of the low-key variety. It comes from their teachings that they can share their faith with others simply by living it. (Much easier said than done for many of us - regardless of our faith.)
Over the years, I've come to think of Latter-Day Saints (as they prefer to be called) and their missionaries like the military and its soldiers. I may not agree with some of the military's take on things, but I don't think the soldiers are that bad. So, too, I don't agree with the LDS church on some things, but you can get some great conversation out of some of their missionaries. (Wow, sorry for rambling.)
