It's not just for boys anymore...

To the person who asked "why in the world would you want to serve a mission?" I didn't know if my answer was adequate enough so I found a quote that I think explains it more fully.

Said President Gordon B. Hinckley "Today many sisters are being called to serve. many more are preparing to serve. Not because they aren't married or don't have anything else to do, but they have the desire to serve. One reason that the Lord wants more sisters to serve is because within the next generation He will send His priesthood army to the earth. He wants to send choice spirit children to mothers who have been prepared, properly trained and taught in the gospel. What better schooling can a mother have than the experience and growth she gains through serving a mission."

And then sooo many more reasons!
