 Missionary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A missionary is a propagator of religion, often an evangelist or other representative of a religious community who works among those outside of that community.
Although missionaries can be sent by any religion, the word is most often used to refer to Christian missionaries.
Missionaries typically spend one to two months in the Missionary Training Center (MTC) in Provo, UT or in other MTCs throughout the world, studying scripture, learning new languages, and otherwise preparing themselves for the culture in which they will be living.
