It is quite common for a male Mormon missionary to leave a girlfriend at home while he is serving. There are some guidelines that the couple must follow as missionaries are not allowed to have romantic relationships. Of course they will not see each other or speak on the phone, and they will generally be allowed to exchange one email or letter each week. These letters should not be too romantic in nature, because this could prove distracting to the missionary. A boy leaving his girlfriend to serve a mission is usually viewed as a very honorable action, and shows that he is willing to give up everything he has to serve and obey God.

It is also pretty common for the missionary to get a "Dear John" letter from his girlfriend while he is gone, ending the relationship. This isn't surprising as a long-distance relationship with so little contact is extremely difficult. However, many Mormon girls do successfully wait for their missionaries and later marry them, including myself, my aunts, and my grandmother!

Am I in love with a Mormon missionary?

It's possible, although it's more likely that you have a crush. Unfortunately, Mormon missionaries are not allowed to date or even be alone with someone other than their assigned missionary companion. So if you are in love with a Mormon Missionary, you'll have to wait until his/her mission is over to do anything about it.

Who was the very popular Mormon singer that quit and went on a mission?

I don't know that any of the more popular Mormon singers quit to go on missions. Popular Mormon singers such as David Archuleta, Brandon Flowers, Gladys Knight, and Donny Osmond did not (or have not as yet) served missions. Other Mormon singers who have served missions did not quit the music industry but continued recording when their mission was over.


Should you tell your Mormon missionary you are in love with him before he gets transferred to another area?

No. You should not be romantically involved with a Mormon missionary. Period. He is on his mission to serve God, and not to be out dating or flirting with women on his mission. Wait until he is done with his mission if you have feelings for him.

How do you contact a Mormon missionary?

This depends on who you want to contact and why you want to contact them. If you want to get in touch with a Mormon Missionary who lives in your area, there is a simple online request form that you can fill out and they will contact you within a couple days. You can also chat with Mormon missionaries online. If you live in the U.S. or Canada, you can also talk with a Mormon missionary over the phone by calling 1-888-537-6600. Links to chat or request a visit are available at the "Related Links" below. If you want to contact a specific Mormon missionary, such as a friend or relative, you will have to send them a letter. Mormon missionaries are not allowed to receive phone calls from home. The best way to do this is to send a letter to the mission office or general mailing address for the mission, and the office will route it to the missionary. To find that address, you will probably have to do some searching online. Some missionaries are able to use e-mail, and some are not. You will have to ask the missionary for his/her e-mail address. A very convenient way to write to a missionary is to use an online service. This way you simply type your letter, pay any applicable postage, and the service will print and mail your letter for you. A link to the most popular of these services is found at the "Related Link" below.

Im hispanic and you think im falling in love with a Mormon missionary?

I don't know what being hispanic has to do with anything, but it is no use in falling in love with a Mormon Missionary. They have devoted this portion of their lives to serving Jesus Christ and teaching the Gospel, therefore they avoid relationships and romance of all kinds. Also, being baptized will be no way to impress him/her. Keep this in mind and only accept baptism if you believe in the Church, not because you love the missionary who is teaching you.


Was Jim McMahon a Mormon missionary?

Nope. He wasn't even a Mormon - he's Catholic. He did attend Brigham Young University, however, and represented BYU admirably well on the field of play. By the way, please note that it's spelled Mormon, not Morman. It comes from The Book of Mormon, a book accepted by "Mormons" as scripture along with the Bible.
