Recite our entire service missionary purpose by heart

Our purpose is to help other come unto Christ by serving with loving kindness as the Savior would. Minister in His name to the one through the power of the Holy Ghost and live as an example of Faith in Jesus Christ, Repentance, Covenant Keeping with God, and enduring to the end. In the Colorado Denver East Mission, we enthusiastically magnify the Savior's great commission to "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 always, even unto the end of the world. Amen"
