Senior Missionaries

"If you are or will soon be the age of a senior missionary, I come to you this afternoon to witness of the blessings that can change your life forever. Your Heavenly Father needs you. His work, under the direction of our Savior Jesus Christ, needs what you are uniquely prepared to give. Every missionary experience requires faith, sacrifice, and service, and these are always followed by an outpouring of blessings."

(Robert D. Hales, "Couple Missionaries," Ensign, May 2005, 39)

Elder Jeffrey Holland: LDS Church desperately needs more senior missionaries

"We have made a few adjustments in policy recently because, frankly, we want it to be easier for our more mature members to go on missions," said Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the church's Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and a member of the church's missionary executive council. "We are aware that it interrupts family life for a few months. We are aware that it is a sacrifice. It is, after all, missionary work. But we want to make it as easy as we possibly can because these senior missionaries are so needed - because they make such a difference." Ref. Source 3
