"The holy scriptures contain no proclamation more relevant,, no responsibility more binding, no instruction more direct than the injunction given by the resurrected Lord as He appeared in Galilee to the eleven disciples. Said He:
'Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
'Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.'
This Divine command, ,coupled with its glorious promise, is our watchword today as it was in the meridian of time. Missionary work is an identifying feature of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Always it has been: ever it shall be. As the Prophet Joseph Smith declared, 'After all that has been said, the greatest and most important duty is to preach the Gospel.' "
President Thomas S. Monson, "Come, All Ye Sons of God," General Conference April 2013
