All Mormons go on missions. They learn languages and go to foreign countries or stay in America. Their parents pay for it all. They volunteer for this and it's usually 2 years.
They engage in proselytizing and humanitarian aid.
Even older adult married coples go on missions. A Div. mgr. from UPS and his wife did it when they retired.
Mormon missionaries serve voluntarily, not receiving any salary from the church for their work, typically supporting themselves financially or through assistance from family and other church members. Many young LDS members save money during their teenage years to afford missionary expenses when they are so called to serve.
So, Mitt did what young adult Mormons do. If he was Catholic, he would've made his Confirmation in the 6th grade.....or the Jewsh celebration when a boy becomes a man.
So, he didn't go to Mexico to practice his religion, he went to spread the word of his faith...............and you want to knock him down for that?
That's sick!!
