“I had all kinds of questions. Who was my Savior? Did Heavenly Father know me? What was His plan for me? [The missionaries] were always willing and ready to answer my questions and they always had resources to back them up.”

“Faith … is alive, and it’s alive today. And it works. When we think God doesn’t deliver what we ask for, check again. He may not always come in your timing, but He always comes on time.”

“The missionaries finally said to me, ‘If you want to know if this is true … don’t take our word for it. Go to the source of all truth.’ And that’s what I did. When I asked God if what they were telling me was true, it brought a feeling of love, joy, and peace.”

Common Questions

Missionaries are volunteers who have set aside their everyday lives for up to two years to help others come closer to Jesus Christ. Before leaving on a mission, they were students, employees, athletes, bookworms, musicians, and, well, you get the idea. After their service, they will return home and go back to normal life.

They come from all over the world. It’s not uncommon for missionaries to serve in a country and speak a language other than their own. Missionaries serve as young adults or in their retired years as singles or couples. Whatever their age, their motivation is sincere—they leave their homes and families for a period to do what Jesus taught His Apostles: “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15).

Church service times vary from congregation to congregation. However, you can always count on one main worship service for everyone, followed by classes for children, youth, and adults.

The service for everyone is called “sacrament meeting.” This meeting consists of songs, prayers, and sermons (or “talks”) given by different members of the congregation every week. But the most important part of the meeting is when we take the bread and water of the sacrament (similar to Communion) to remember the Savior.

If you would like to worship with us, missionaries can answer your questions, share information about the time and place of your local worship services, and then save you a seat when you’re ready to visit.

Sometimes God doesn’t seem to answer prayers right away—or at all. Does that mean He doesn’t care or that He’s not listening? No. Sometimes, God waits to answer our prayers because He trusts us to make the right decision. Other times, God requires us to patiently wait for an answer so we can build our faith and trust in Him. And on some occasions, God gives us answers but they may not be what we’d hoped for. Whatever the answer, take comfort in the fact that God always listens when you pray, and He will give you the right guidance at the right time.

The Bible teaches us to have faith in Jesus Christ, including what faith is, how faith works, how to develop faith, and how faith blesses lives. Though life can be hard, having faith in God and Jesus Christ can help us get through anything.

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1).

“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” (Joshua 1:9).
