What's in a Name?

"What's in a name? 
That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet."




It is true, that with or without a name badge, we are all missionaries.  We don't need that piece of plastic on our shirt to open our mouths and share.  As members of the Lord's church, we are commanded to warn our neighbor, and share the good news of the Gospel.  However, there is something quite special about being called and set apart as a full-time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  That particular name is special. 

When our missionaries put on their official missionary name badge, they literally take upon them the name of Jesus Christ.  They are His representative, all day, every day.  They go into the world to do what He would do if he were here.  They bring the World His truth.

Missionaries treasure their name badges, even long after they are released and take them off.  As missionary mommas, we love all the creative name badges photos.  Here is a collection for you to enjoy!
