Elder Hult: Atonement - MissionaryBoys

Although the church holds young men to a very high standard of personal conduct, the leaders of the church also know thatpeople are susceptible to temptation, especially when they are young and their bodies are undergoing powerful changes. Missionaries are therefore given many opportunities to resolve past transgressions before they enter the mission field. They are interviewed by their bishop, and their stake president, and then when they enter the missionary training center they are given yet another chance to confess to any sins they may have committed!
