Of course, in more everyday life, people have the image of people knocking on your door asking you to read various books or magazines. Modern missionaries are likely to be from one of two specific organizations:
 
* [[Hollywood JehovahsJehovah's Witness|Jehovah's Witnesses]]: Each member of this faith has made an extensive study of the Bible and dedicated his or her life to Jehovah God to do his will. Their main objective is using God's word to preach the good news of God. The stereotype is usually of someone knocking on your door early in the morning giving you a pamphlet about how the end times are coming.
 
* [[Useful Notes/Mormonism|The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]]: Usually young men, but may also be families. LDS missionaries are identified by name tags (usually black) and always work in pairs. The young men are typically seen wearing white shirts with dark pants and conservative ties, often riding bicycles.
 
Modern variants include [[Hollywood JehovahsJehovah's Witness]] and [[Knocking On Heathens' Door]].
