How to Set Up A Mission Web Site

LDS Mission Network was established to have one central source to find current mission Web sites. While most LDS Missions have Web sites, some have been abandoned and others need to be created. If you are trying to set up a new mission Web site, take over a current one, or trying to take over an abandoned site, please select the appropriate checklist below:
