Back for its second year, the 2009 Men on a Mission calendar features twelve handsome returned Mormon missionaries who have dared once again to pose bare-chested in a steamy international calendar.
At one time seen riding their bicycles and preaching door-to-door, these hunky men of faith are now on a new mission to powerfully tear down stereotypes and promote religious and cultural tolerance around the world. Hand-selected for their striking appearances and personal humanitarian commitment, the "devout dozen" are stepping away from the Mormon traditions of modest dress, and "baring their testimony" to demonstrate that they can have strong faith and be proud of who they are, while reaching out to a broad audience with a sense of individualism and a sense of humor.
The Men on a Mission calendar benefits a variety of worthy causes. Each of the twelve former missionaries have the opportunity to donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the calendar to a cause in the area where he has served. Not only have they helped those in need personally, they now have the opportunity to help financially.
