Those who are sincere and who have the desire to know about what we believe and why, take time to listen to the missionaries. As you are
probably aware, young men of the church when they reach the age of about 19 or 20, go out to serve a mission at their own expense for a period
of two years. Today, there are more than 60,000 missionaries in more than 167 countries in the world. You have probably seen them in your own
town. They have a series of six discussions, which explain the doctrine of the church. They will even give you your own personal copy of the Book
of Mormon and invite you to take time to study it in-between their visits. You will also want to attend church with them, just to see what the church
services are like and what the people are like. They will introduce you to our beliefs in health and in nutrition, and encourage you to stop smoking
and drinking and even eliminating coffee and tea. They will further teach you that families can be together in Heavenly Father's Celestial Kingdom
and they will teach you many other great things about our beliefs.
If you are a sincere person, with a good heart, and I have no doubt that you are considering what it is that you have asked, the power of the Holy
Ghost will bless your life and help you to know whether this is worth pursuing of not. If you would like me to have representatives call on you I will
be happy to do so. I’ll need your address and phone number in order to do this. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Donny Osmond
