With changes to the communication guidelines, Latter-day Saint missionaries and their families now have more opportunities than ever to converse and share. It’s important that these conversations are uplifting and centered on the work. To assist families in having such meaningful discussions with their missionaries, we have compiled thirty questions to help you get started. Take a look through them and choose one that you’d like to ask your missionary during your next conversation.
