    I play for rugby for highland here in salt lake and seeing this video has helped me relate to Sid, his example to me of putting the Lord first before anything else of this earth. I cant wait to get out in the mission field in august to serve and spread the gospel!!

    I'm 22 years old, and am a recently baptized member of my church. I knew before I was even baptized that I was going to serve a mission, and have been saving up for it for almost a year now. I faced a great deal of opposition on this decision, from my family, from my coworkers, and (occasionally) even members from the church. Despite it all, I know what the Lord wants me to do and I honestly don't care about much else. I can't wait!

    This is such a beautiful story and a testament of the truthfulness of the Gospel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! I am so grateful for Jesus Christ and all He does for me and everyone else!

    Personally, its 100 times more attractive when a guy decides to serve the Lord first despite what the "world" keeps offering him :-)

    I love the phrase that says God will make more of you than you can, if you give your life to God. I think this applies to serving a mission!

    I to am a convert. I was baptized three years ago on the 19th of April. It is because of two young men who took the time and made the sacrifice for the faith. I have not looked back since. Thank you for your service.

    Going on a mission is very important. I am almost 19 and people ask why I am going, and I tell them because I want to. They tell me I could use the money on collage or a car. I don't want to though. I am a convert and I understand the importance of missionary work. I was on the receiving end almost ten years ago. I will spend my ten year anniversary in the mission field. I can't think of any where better to have my ten year anniversary than serving the Lord.

    A mission is a wonderful opportunity for young men and young women who belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints to give up 18 months to 2 years of their lives serving God by spreading His gospel. They are able to bring individuals to Christ and show families how they can be sealed together forever!

    "As you go forth, open your mouth and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to your fellow man and serve a mission for your Heavenly Father that he has asked you to do prior to coming into mortality."
    This is an excerpt from my patriarchal blessing. I will go and do the things the lord has commanded, and I will go forth and preach his gospel and serve a mission.

    I'm go grateful I served a full-time mission (in Canada as well). The spirit that is felt, the personal growth, and the blessing to see lives changed as they embrace the restored gospel is a beautiful blessing.

    Serving an honorable full time mission is not something I just want to do but it is something I believe in. I'm going to serve a mission believing that I can help others change, believing that I can make my heavenly father proud to sacrifice a tiny portion of my life to serve him and I know he will bless all those that believe in him.

    This video has more significance to me now that the ages were lowered from 19 to 18, and from 21 to 19. My brother only has to wait six years now, and I only have to wait five! I'm preparing for my mission early!

    A mission is something that LDS youth do (boys at the minimum age of 18 and girls at the age of 19). We believe that for young men, serving a mission is a calling from God. Young women have the option and are welcomed to serve but not required. On a mission, companionships of two missionaries study, learn, teach, and proselyte about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. They share the message of the gospel of Jesus Christ. A mission lasts two years for men and 18 months for women.

    Sorry, daydreambeliever, about the late reply! Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are blessed so much by following Jesus Christ. Those who follow Him and His teachings receive peace in this life and the hope for Eternal happiness in the life to come. We want all to be able to experience that peace. So missionaries leave their homes, family, school, and jobs for 2 years to teach others how to follow Jesus Christ and have a relationship with their Heavenly Father.

  • @jea123nne
    @jea123nne 11 років тому +3

    Alot of churches have missionaries, so they all probably work differently. But with the LDS church missionaries go for 18 months-2 years, usually guys go at 18 and girls 19. Actually the age was changed a few months ago, it used to be 19 for guys and 21 for girls. But pretty much you go and share the gospel with people in whatever country or state you go to. The main purpose is bringing others to Christ. :)

    Fantastic little video/documentary! Should give detractors something to think about instead of criticizing the church... as well as young LDS men considering going on a mission. Well done!

  • @HybridEqualist
    @HybridEqualist 12 років тому

    The missions that this video is talking about is when young men, who are eligible at age 18 after graduation, leave there homes to preach and serve people in mission areas across the globe for two years. Sister missionaries are eligible at age 19, and serve for a year and a half.
    Their job is to teach people the gospel and serve them wherever their called.
    You can go to mormon.org and ask more questions. They'll help you out. :)

  • @LifeIsBeautiful360
    @LifeIsBeautiful360 11 років тому

    I don't know if someone has answered this yet or not... But here you go.
    This is talking specifically about an LDS mission btw.
    Anyway, its where we dedicate 2 years for boys, or 18 months for girls, to spreading the gospel of God. We teach others what we believe in, if they want to hear it.
    Hope that answered your question!!
    If you'd like to know/understand more, you can go to lds.org, or mormon.org.
    They can help you more than I can, in this little space.
    Thanks!!! :D

    • @c3147897
      @c3147897 5 років тому

      People in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints set aside 18-24 months to focus primarily on proselytising, typically away from home and often in a different country speaking a different language.
