| This list of useful mission vocabulary was compiled from a core vocabulary created by the site owner and submissions by other mission page maintainers.
In April 2006, Russ Bateman contributed a much more extensive list of Church vocabulary.
Fundamentals
| God | Dieu (m.) |
| Jesus Christ | Jésus-Christ (see note below) |
| Holy Ghost | le Saint-Esprit |
| The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints | l'Église de Jésus-Christ des Saints des Derniers Jours (see note below) |
| the Gospel | l'Evangile |
| Scriptures | les Écritures |
| The Bible | la Bible |
| The Book of Mormon | le Livre de Mormon |
| The Doctrine and Covenants | la Doctrine et Alliances |

Note: Missionaries often mispronounce the name "Jésus-Christ". The last two letters are silent. Thus, "zhay-zü kree", and the name of the Church is "lay-gleez d@ zhay-zü kree day si~ day dair-nyay zhooR". (See the extended note under missionary errors.)
