dude it's late at night and I'm thinking the same thing. I am so excited to go. I keep on wondering where I'm gonna go and I know wherever I am gonna be doing the right thing. I put the desire to learn a foreign language as high so I'm really going far from home. I'm scared but I'm also so happy. No matter where you go, you've got God right by your side. Good luck.

Where did you both end up going? This was the same for me, terrifying but once you open it up you’re so happy

Erin Flores are you on ur mission now?

Cane Sollera where are you...

Because the Lord guides them. How else do you think teenagers can leave their home to another country that they are extremely unaccustomed to and teach the Gospel, and baptise hundreds of thousands of converts.

Tyler Edwards Really, Tyler? It's not that easy. If the church's leaders (prophets, seers, and revelators) cannot answer the questions, how can we expect teen-aged missionaries to aswer those questions? For example, open your Book of Abraham to Facsimile #3 and look at the five characters there. From the left, the first and third appear to be distinctly female (shorter, small feet, long hair, dresses, etc). Above the third character's hand, the text there says "Ma'at, Mistress of the Gods." If you compare this to the caption, two things are apparent. First, the caption calls these two female characters Pharaoh and his son. That's very odd that Abraham drew the two most powerful men in the world as short, curvy females and called them Isis and Ma'at, respectively. Likewise, it is very strange that the writing above their heads/hands does not say what the caption states. This is the kind of problem that missionaries will be faced with. Unfortunately, bearing a testimony just won't cut it. They need to be better prepared!

Haha well Ive been called to serve in a few months. And whatever they're doing its working so regardless of what holes you think you might find it doesn't change the fact the people convert to our church. Although I agree with you, it wouldn't hurt one bit to be much more prepared.

Tyler Edwards As you might have guessed, I'm an ex-Mormon. After 38 years of devout, temple-attending membership in the church, my family and I left the church for doctrinal reasons. I imagine that you will be faced with many challenges on your mission. I admire your courage and ambition. I respect your decision to serve. The unfortunate reality, though , is that neither truth or history is on your side. As members discover the many problems with church history, it becomes apparent that the church is deliberately deceptive to its members. Questions to prepare for: 1. How many wives did Joseph Smith have? How old was his youngest wife? 2. What archaeological evidence exists to support the Book of Mormon? 3. Why does the text in the Book of Abraham Facsimiles not agree with the captions Joseph Smith added for these images? 4. Did you know that the name of the church did not always include the name of Jesus? 5. What were the Kinderhook Plates? Joseph translated part of them and revealed the story of Zelph. What does the church believe now? 6. Did Brigham Young know about the Mountain Meadows Massacre? How many settlers did the Mormons needlesslly slaughter? 7. Joseph's testimony in court when he was convicted of being a con man is pretty damning. He openly admits that he used a seer stone to find buried treasure. Incidently, this same seer stone was used to translate parts of the Book of Mormon after Moroni took back the stones (116 pages lost, etc.). These are some things to prepare for. I'd be happy to discuss these issues with you. I'm not hateful; I would be happy to present both sides of each point.

I know there are questions regarding the truth of this church. But I believe that all of there are very much speculation. For one, God cannot be blamed for the errors of man, we all know that the bible and the scriptures are full of grammatical errors and is not meant to be translated literally. There are many mysteries that will remain unanswered until judgement day. There is one thing I know to be true and that is that there is a God and I believe in him through the LDS church. After having my brother appear to my family one day after his passing, that is something that guarantees a life long unwavering testimony.

Your call isn't where you go, your call is to serve as a missionary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Every place on this earth there are people who need love and service. Of course it's an added bonus to go somewhere foreign, but it shouldn't be about you or your experience, it should be about the WORK. :)

True. It's a lesson that I spent more than 20 years learning after my own mission call to the New York New York City (Greek) mission (I was bitterly disappointed, as I had wanted to serve in Italy). It took me that long to understand and accept why New York (Greek) was the right place for me, and why Italy would have been the WRONG place -- and why I would have been the wrong person to send there!

Lee SHUT UP ! stop bragging about you're self Mormons do that frequently

Scott Anderson I beg your pardon, young man? What part of my post constituted bragging?

keep telling yourselves it's where you were "meant" to go 😂😂 I've seen such shady practices regarding this..

It has to do with the ## of people serving in that area.. blue is 2..green is 3..

Megan Chan thank you very much!
