Each day our missionaries recite the mission statement and missionary purpose before leaving their apartments for the day. We also recite this at each district council, zone conference, MLC, New Leader training, 8-Week training, & New missionary training. President Peterson recently added a scripture, 3 Nephi 5:13 and switched out words such as we and our for My and I.
3 Nephi 5:13
"Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of Him to declare His word among His people, that they might have everlasting life."
My discipleship is settled, I am faithfully prepared, exactly obedient and lovingly bold. I will see miracles and accomplish my missionary purpose as I unite with the Lord in hastening His work. We are the Texas Houston Mission.
My purpose is to invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith in Jesus Christ and His atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost and enduring to the end.
