Missions transform lives forever, rooted in a love for the Savior that must burn deeply within each missionary, as exemplified by a personal journey from ignorance to profound change over two years. This era of missionary work, marked by Preach My Gospel, shifts the focus to converting the missionary first - through heartfelt study, thoughtful planning, and teaching with power - to then reach investigators where they are, meeting their real needs with empathy and spirit-led insight.

The gospel teaches us to say "yes" to good friends, "no" to drugs and alcohol, "no" to pornography, "no" to immorality, "yes" to repenting, coming to Christ, and enjoying a life of peace and happiness. It really is a "no-brainer"!

Every individual counts in this unprecedented era of Church growth, where one person’s quiet courage - echoed by figures like Abinadi or Alma - can ripple outward, building the kingdom through simple faith and service. The call is clear: stand firm, share testimonies, and live covenants boldly, knowing God works through each effort to answer prayers and bless others.
