With BYU-Pathway Worldwide's global presence, service missionaries play a central role in finding, shepherding, and supporting Â鶹´«Ã½ at the local level in most countries. As missionaries give Christ-like service to the Â鶹´«Ã½ they work with, they demonstrate the truthfulness of King Benjamin's words: When ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God. (Mosiah 2:17)
Service Missionaries
Called & Set Apart
Service missionaries assigned to BYU-Pathway are called and set apart through local priesthood leadership and thus carry a meaningful mantle. Missionaries watch over, encourage, and empower Â鶹´«Ã½ to become disciple leaders and capable learners. In the same way that full-time proselyting missionaries pray for their investigators, service missionaries assigned to BYU-Pathway also have access to the powers of heaven and should use that power in behalf of Â鶹´«Ã½, as well as to seek out new Â鶹´«Ã½ who need the educational and spiritual blessings that BYU-Pathway's offerings can provide.
When we first started our mission we thought it would be us contributing more; however, we quickly realized that we were the ones benefitting the most.
- Participate in on-going training to help shepherd Â鶹´«Ã½ and support other missionaries.
- Facilitate weekly gatherings at a local building or virtually through video conferencing software.
- Inform prospective Â鶹´«Ã½, including friends of the Church, about BYU-Pathway and invite them to participate.
- If the opportunity presents itself, invite friends of the Church to meet with full-time missionaries to learn more about the gospel.
- Provide Â鶹´«Ã½ with love and support.
- Serve 10–15 hours per week.
- Encourage and motivate Â鶹´«Ã½ toward academic and life success.
- Assist in finding the one or hidden many by orienting stake and/or ward leaders about BYU-Pathway as assigned and give promotional presentations when needed.
