Note from Sis. Bergquist:
I get an email from LDS Living and they had this little corner of mission facts that I thought you might enjoy since you are in the mode.
Did you know that Joseph F. Smith was fifteen when he was called to serve a mission in Hawaii? Here are some other missionary facts:
The one millionth full-time missionary was called in 2007
24,000 missionaries enter the Provo MTC over the course of a year
There are 17 MTCs throughout the world
265,593 converts were baptized last year
David O. McKay proclaimed "every member a missionary” in 1959
As of 2008, there were 348 LDS missions in the world
In 1921, Elder David O. McKay dedicated China for the preaching of the gospel
