The Church of Jesus Christ operates the largest full-time missionary program of any Christian denomination in the world, according to a recent report by the BBC.
The church sends tens of thousands of missionaries globally, engaging in proselytizing, community service, and humanitarian efforts. Most missionaries are young adults, typically between 18 and 25, who serve for periods of 18 months to two years.
Missionaries often work in pairs and travel worldwide to teach about Jesus Christ, support local communities, and assist in disaster relief and development projects. The program is largely funded by the missionaries themselves, their families, and local church contributions.
The BBC report highlighted the scale and reach of the church’s missionary program, noting that its global presence has grown significantly since church’s restoration in 1830. The effort remains a cornerstone of the Church of Jesus Christ’s religious outreach and engagement with communities around the world.
