Because of you, dedicated young men and women have means to serve.
Give to MissionaryGeneral Missionary Fund
In record numbers, young men and young women from around the globe are feeling the desire to serve. Not all have the financial resources, however, to fully fund a full-time mission. Generous donors provide needed funding so that all who want to serve a full-time mission may do so.
Your Donations at Work
Missionaries not only bring blessings to the lives of the many people they serve and teach, but they are also blessed in return for their service as they gain communication and leadership skills.

You Can Help
More than 35 percent of the current missionary force needs at least partial assistance from the General Missionary Fund to serve. In 2013, President Monson invited members to help support these missionaries in their efforts to serve the Lord in a meaningful way. Donations really do help “change and save lives.”

A Note from Dave Weidman
Managing Director, Missionary Department
It is wondrous to see how pivotal the last 18 months have been in the history of this great latter-day work. The pandemic has influenced and prompted new perspectives for nearly every aspect of how we share the gospel, from finding to teaching to logistics. These months have brought—along with significant hardship—an inspired new beginning that lays the foundation for how we will share the gospel in the future. We are truly humbled by the Lord’s guiding hand.
On behalf of missionaries around the world, we are deeply grateful for your faith-filled gift. Thanks in part to you, thousands of missionaries worldwide can embark in the Lord’s service during this unprecedented time to lift others, themselves, and their posterity forever. Though the missionaries supported by these funds may never know you personally, they are sustained by your kindness as they face a world that so desperately needs the light and hope of the restored gospel.
Now more than ever, as we begin to emerge from some of these historic challenges, we stand with you in the conviction that “the worth of souls is great in the sight of God” (Doctrine and Covenants 18:10). May we go forward together in this changing world, confident and prepared to share the Savior’s love and invite all people to come unto Jesus Christ.
