(KSL News) Because of visa problems, missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from North America will no longer serve in Russia.
The Deseret News reports that North American missionaries already there will finish serving their missions. However, those currently in the Missionary Training Center who had been called to Russia will be assigned to other missions.
Last year, Russia began requiring foreigners on humanitarian visas, which includes missionaries, to leave the country every three months to renew their visas.
