Do All Mormons Serve Missions??

A LOT of people in our audience have asked, "Is it okay NOT to serve a mission?" Short answer: YES. It's okay.  David says that in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (otherwise known as the Mormon Church), young men are encouraged to serve a full-time mission. However, just because it's an encouragement does not mean it's a requirement to be a faithful member of the Church.  Kwaku talks about his experience in determining whether or not to serve a mission. Kwaku has decided not to serve a full-time mission, as it is formally known, and has instead determined that his mission was to preach the gospel online through different social media platforms.  David and Kwaku both express that their choice to serve a mission changed their lives for the better and that they don't regret the choices they made.  Did you serve a mission? And would you only date someone who served a mission? Let us know via Instagram DM's or follow us on YouTube and let us know in the comments to the video! Thanks for listening :)
