Hey, everyone. I recently heard from a slightly unreliable source that my sister (who is leaving for a mission soon) had to buy all of her mission supplies through a designated LDS website. This included a cheap bike that cost $600!!!
Like I said, the person who told me this likes to exaggerate and make things sound much worse, especially in regards to the mormon church. Can someone confirm this information?
If it's true, it REALLY pisses me off! Missionaries save up 10,000 for their missions, don't they? And then on top of that they have to buy certain items from a LDS website as well? So how much is the church making off of these poor missionaries really? How much does a mission actually cost? The whole thing just sounds like a terrible scam to put more money in the church's pocket.
