Married or single, you sisters possess distinctive capabilities and special intuition you have received as gifts from God. We brethren cannot duplicate your unique influence.

Many institutions of higher learning will grant an 18- to 30-month deferral to prospective missionaries.

We are very grateful to leaders of educational institutions who are making such planning possible!

A covenant made with God should be regarded not as restrictive but as protective.

God can never make two things thesame_ to think otherwise is an error.

Whatever you cannot understand, you cannot possess.
