Mission Specific Shirts

The shirts are a great item for a hump day (1/2 way), birthday or Christmas package.   It's never too soon to start Christmas shopping for your missionary!  Especially if they are serving in another country and you have to ship internationally.  It can take weeks and even months for a package to arrive!

These fun t-shirts can be ordered with ANY specific mission!  Each design is printed on a high quality shirt with vibrant colors.  Your missionary message will be loud and clear when wearing one of these!

Angel Momma Project

CHRISTMAS IS COMING! Missionary Mommas need to think like Walmart and the craft stores and get Christmassy EARLY.... especially if your missionary is overseas! We get so excited as we prepare Christmas packages for our missionaries. We want them to feel love from home!!!

It has come to our attention that there are a few of our missionaries that have companions that don't have the same support. Some missionaries are the only member in their family, and some families don't have the means to send packages or even letters to their missionary.

Now, I know what you are thinking...because I am have'n the same thought! And the answer is YES, we CAN help! After checking in with the Mission Dept in SLC, we have come up with a couple ways that MMs can help out!!!





We can donate to the General Mission Fund so that when there is a need, the Church can help. And we can send small packages for the Elders and Sisters on our "Needs Some Love" list. We'll include a few fun items such as CD's, stationery, bookmarks, pens, small treats, etc...

Sooooo....here's the plan...

There are several ways to be a part of this project!

1- Donate funds using the Paypal donation button on the MM Mall, in the pinned post on the FB Group or here on the MM Blog! Click here >>>>



2- Purchase a MM Angel shirt, available at the MM Mall... for each shirt purchased, $1 will go to the General Mission Fund and $1 will go to help put together and ship our packages.




3- Donate to the General Mission Fund by using your tithing slip.



4- Go serve the missionaries on YOUR area. Remember to take pics of your service to share with the group throughout December!



I am only one MM... alone I can only so much... but together as a group, 6500 strong, we can make a huge difference to the 25 missionaries on our list!!!

LET THE HOLIDAYS BEGIN!!! And to help get things started, here are some of our missionaries that are already celebrating... celebrating birthdays and P-Day, that is!!! ;)

MissionaryMommaMall.com

We are so excited to announce the GRAND OPENING of the brand new, Missionary Momma Mall!!

It has been almost exactly a year since this whole crazy Missionary Momma adventure began.  Wow, what a year it has been!  So much has come from that one bright little spark of an idea!  (Thank you Heidi for heeding that prompting, you're awesome!)  We have grown from a few like minded moms to over 6,000 strong!  It has been exciting to make so many new friends and get to share in your joys and sorrows.   We are all different, yet united in our love for missionaries.

There are so many talented moms out there.  You do AMAZING things!  The creativity and originality present in this group is impressive!  When one of us has a question, someone ALWAYS has an answer!  When someone needs help, there is a Missionary Momma (or 2 or 200) ready, willing and able.  I don't think there is anything that collectively, this group can't do!  Mommas, you ROCK!

We DO hard things!

One of those seemingly hard things for a good many of us, comes in the form of that $400 monthly check (or $800, or $1200 for those of you with multiple missionaries serving at the same time - Dang - you are impressive!!).  Finding an extra $400 in the monthly budget is no easy task.  Many moms who previously stayed at home have gone back to work. Some of us who have always worked are scratching our heads as to how we can make more and still have time for all the other commitments in our life.  Some have become entrepreneurs and are now selling a product or a service to help meet financial obligations.

We have created the Missionary Momma Mall to help those moms who have products to sell.  Many of these moms already have websites, Etsy stores, etc, and are working hard to find their niche in the market place.  We are an avenue that helps them reach out to our vast group, and showcase their creativity directly to their best audience - other Missionary Mommas! 

Are you one of those moms that has been blessed with a creative talent and need a place to sell your products?  Are you looking for a way to earn some money to help support your missionary?  If so, come be a vendor on  MissionaryMommaMall.com. Offering your products for sale on MissionaryMommaMall.com is simple and affordable. 

We would love to have your products offered in the mall! 

www.missionarymommamall.com
Here is how it works:

1. You provide us with the list of products you want to offer in the online MissonaryMommaMall.  Include pricing, description, photos, size and color options.

2. We upload your items and take orders and payment on your behalf.

3.  As orders are received they will be emailed to you and payment will be sent to you via check or PayPal.

4. You ship the products ordered directly to the customer.

5. You have direct contact with the customer and you can contact them directly on this transaction and on any possible future transactions.

The fees involved are as follows:

1. $20 for the first 5 products advertised on the mall and $10 for each additional 5 products, per month.

2. The credit card processing service charges us 2.9% +.30 per transaction.  We simply pass this fee on to you and take no percentage of the sale. This amount will be deducted from each order prior to funds being sent to you. 

3. That's it!  Super Simple, Super Affordable!

We are still offering our original advertising plan with sidebar ads on the blog (MissionaryMommas.org), write ups on the Missionary Mommas Recommend blog, prizes for the weekly drawings, ads on the public FB page, etc.  Contact us for more information and we will put together a package for you.  For more information email us at missionarymommasrecommend@gmail.com or send a PM on FaceBook to Wendy Minks.

Go take a look at missionarymommamall.com and let us know what you think!

Button Rukus


ButtonRukus comes from my fettish as a teenager with Pinback Buttons. This started as a way of me re-living my youth. Ha Ha I love quips, one-liners, and funny sayings that catch your attention. After only doing this for fun, my kids began getting involved and working with me.

Because I currently have TWO missionaries serving missions, it was just natural that the buttons merge into LDS missionary sayings, motivations, etc. The idea was that I would be able to support our missionaries through the button sales. 
www.ButtonRukus.etsy.com
Tell the world you are a Proud Missionary Mom!
CountDown Magnet counts down the days

your missionary has left to work their heart out!


It has been a fun and inspiring ride so far and I feel like we are just getting started. I have so many ideas in my head to get into a magnet or pinback! Not to mention I love the inspiration my followers send me.

My most favorite creations are of those with personal pictures. I love when I'm walking past my own refrigerator or down my hall past the magnet board to catch my missionaries face looking at me. I'm one Proud Missionary Momma that's for sure. 


www.ButtonRukus.etsy.com
This is a great way for your missionary to display a family photo!
Easy to transport, doesn't break or bend and hangs on the fridge!
I'd love to add your family picture or missionary photo to a magnet or pinback button so you can show your Missionary Pride as well.  Remember, every button has a story and every story has a button. Thank you for helping me make a Rukus in the Button business and supporting MY Missionaries!
 
Really, some missionaries may have a significant other at home... A Cute Girl, A Handsome Boy, or A Special Pet... Whether your special someone is of the Human Race OR NOT, this button is sure to make your missionary happy at the reminder of who is waiting for them at home. :)

 
Family History can be addicting. My SIL has caught the bug and can't seem to overcome her sickness... :) We have been blessed by her diligence to help in the work of family members. These are just some fun buttons that poke a little fun and thought at Family History.
 


 

 
 
It's great when you can find some humor, even in missionary work!

Mona Udy is the proud Momma of TWO missionaries currently serving!  She has used her creative talents to bring ButtonRukus to the world!  Show the world you are a Proud Missionary Mom with one of her stylish pins, or design your own!  She has something for everyone.  To see all of her current designs, check out her etsy store at ~
