Overview

"When author Norman Hill asked hundreds of Church members what they needed to do to prepare for a mission, he was given several answers and suggestions-so many that he realized how easy it was to overlook the most important strengths The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints prescribes for its gospel messengers. Some of the abilities we sometimes fail to consider are - Understanding priesthood leaders' perspectives - Obeying mission rules with exactness - Focusing on commitments and the baptismal interview questions when teaching investigators - Being aware of one's own personal progress and not that of others Visualizing investigators as our Father in Heaven visualizes them In order for missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to succeed in their sacred calling, they must first be prepared, and in order for them to be prepared, they must first know how. What They Don't Teach at the MTC provides the fundamental foundation needed in order to gain the necessary skills and abilities to serve a successful mission. It is for all those who desire to bring souls unto Christ and reap the blessings thereof. Benjamin Franklin once said, ""Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, success, and achievement have no meaning."""
