You might not be aware of this but when on a mission they are not allowed watch TV or read papers listen to any media or go to movies, date or other kinds of entertainment.

They are up early in the morning reading their scriptures doing prayers, eat breatfast and plan their day.

they retire early to read the scriptrues and to do their prayers it is important that they maintain a clean vessel to be able to receive the Holy Spirit to be with them to guide them through out their day.

Most do honor their calling.

August 2001, the Utah Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission began drafting amendments to legalize liquor advertising in print, in restaurants, and on billboards.   The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) thought that the Commission's proposed changes went too far and urged retention of the old rules.^[9]
