hellothere

Thanks to all who have commented on this post, I have found it helpful and reassuring. :)

Thank you all very much, obviously i'd love to serve a mission if I find it to be the true church, however logistically it may be hard with education,parents (who are not to keen on the idea of the church) and other reasons. I guess there is always the possibility of serving one later in life. I appreciate your input :)

Hello All, I did not know if this was the right place to do this or whether I should have posted in the introduce yourself section. Essentially I am intrested and currently learning about the LDS faith, my questions pertain more to the social and cultural aspects of the church rather then doctrinal or spiritual. I am a 24 year old man and some questions have revolve around the acceptance and willingness to marry converts, so wholestically are members accepting to the point of marrying a convert? A question that I also have is would a convert aged 24 be looked down upon for not serving a mission, particualy in regards to a future spouse? In a more wider context would members look down upon a convert aged 24 for not serving a mission? I have more questions, I have asked some of these questions to missionaries but I find that maybe a more wide audience may help me get some answers, obviously I understand that this has no real relevence in terms of the spirtual truths of the church I am seeking. Best,
