----------
Many things, in fact, each adult member of a congregation is given a 'calling' or duty within the congregation. These responsibilities rotate every couple of years. 'Callings' can be anything! They range from cleaning the meetinghouse, teaching Sunday School, being a youth group leader, giving sermons, leading music, leading study groups, administering the sacrament/communion, planning congregation activities or leading the congregation as a bishop.
All members of the Church are called to be disciples of Christ and share the gospel both by serving the needy and by evangelizing. It is not a requirement to serve as a missionary, but quite common for college-age Mormons to do so.
