Amid uncertainty in Ukraine, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is “temporarily reassigning [its] full-time missionaries” to locations outside the country.
A bird flies near the 1,000-year old Orthodox Monastery of Caves covered with the first snow of this winter in Kyiv, Ukraine, Friday, Jan. 15, 2021. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is moving its missionaries out of the country as Ukraine's tensions with Russia rise.
The move was made “out of an abundance of caution, as some government embassies in Ukraine are preparing to move certain personnel and their family members,” church spokesman Sam Penrod said Monday in a. Many of these proselytizers in the Dnipro and Kyiv/Moldova missions “are being reassigned to missions in Europe, and a few missionaries who are approaching their planned release date will complete their missionary service and return home.
Young Latter-day Saint proselytizers “who have recently been called to Ukraine will receive a temporary assignment elsewhere,” Penrod said. “Some missionaries will serve in Moldova, which is away from any potential conflict areas.”
