University of Illinois Press

Deals with 1964 missions of the authors to Mexico. Used the journals and letters written during the missions, but adds more detail. Primary purpose of the book is to document the process of religious socialization to which Mormon youths are exposed as missionaries and the development of their capacity to perform organizationally defined religious roles as they carry out proselyting assignments on behalf of a rapidly expanding international church. Part 1: concept of LDS missionary callings as rites of passage; part 2: patterns of formal LDS missionary training; part 3: Mormon recruitment success and growth in Mexico; part 4: missions' promotion and mobility structure; part 5: consequences of LDS missionary service for Mormonism
