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 David N. Weidman
Managing Director, Missionary Department
On behalf of the Missionary Department and missionaries around the world, we express our deep gratitude for your thoughtful donation. At a time when so many people face both physical and spiritual scarcity in their lives, your support will strengthen the missionaries as they offer a lasting abundance that only the gospel of Jesus Christ can bring. Because of you, the temporal burdens of these divinely commissioned servants may be lightened, more missionaries may be able to focus fully on their sacred purpose, and the light of the restored gospel may spread more efficiently throughout the world.
During the past year, we have marveled at the growth in missionary work. We have seen the Lord’s abundant blessings in the miraculously increasing number of young people choosing to serve missions. We have witnessed His hand in the rapidly developing technology and tools that are helping missionaries serve more effectively and have faith-building experiences. We have felt especially His divine guidance during the preparation of the second edition of Preach My Gospel, which was published and distributed worldwide in the latter half of 2023.
Your offering will help continue to transform this great work and bless missionaries and those they teach for decades to come. We pray that our Heavenly Father will “fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost” (Romans 15:13). May we keep moving forward together in this ever-changing world to share the Savior’s abundant love and to invite all to come unto Jesus Christ.
