To Our Prospective Missionary and Parents
In his opening address of the April 2022 general conference, President Nelson said “today I reaffirm strongly that the Lord has asked every worthy, able young man to prepare for and serve a mission. For Latter-day Saint young men, missionary service is a priesthood responsibility. You young men have been reserved for this time when the promised gathering of Israel is taking place. As you serve missions, you play a pivotal role in this unprecedented work. For you young and able sisters, a mission is also a powerful, but optional, opportunity. We love sister missionaries and welcome them wholeheartedly. What you contribute to this work is magnificent! Pray to know if the Lord would have you serve a mission, and the Holy Ghost will respond to your heart mind.”
Our invitation to each of you is to enhance your mission preparation. Preparing to serve a mission begins long before you begin completing your mission papers.
