[hlela | Hlela umthombo]Ukubaluleka kanye neziqu eziyisisekelo
[hlela | Hlela umthombo]Ukuqedela imishini kuvame ukuchazwa njengesiko lokungena kuSanta osemusha Wezinsuku Zokugcina. [3]Kodwa-ke, ukusebenzela imishini akudingeki ukuze uqhubeke ubulungu besonto.
Izinsizwa ezineminyaka ephakathi kwengu-18 nengama-25 ezihlangabezana nezindinganiso zokufanelekela ziyakhuthazwa ngokuqinile ukuthi zibheke umsebenzi weminyaka emibili, wokuguqula abantu ngokugcwele.Lokhu kulindela kusekelwe engxenyeni ethile yeTestamente Elisha "Hambani-ke, niyofundisa zonke izizwe" ( Math. 28: 19-20 ).Ubuncane beminyaka phambilini babuneminyaka eyi-19 emazweni amaningi kuze kube u-Okthoba 6, 2012, lapho uMongameli weSonto uThomas S. Monson ememezela ukuthi zonke izithunywa zevangeli zesilisa, kungakhathalekile ukuthi ziyisizwe sini, zingasebenza zisukela eminyakeni eyi-18. [4] Ngaphambi kwesimemezelo, amalungu avela kwamanye amazwe avunyelwe ukukhonza kusukela ebuncaneni ukugwema ukungqubuzana nezidingo zemfundo noma ezempi.Kuphinde kwamenyezelwa ukuthi abesifazane abasha bangakhonza beqala eneminyaka engu-19 esikhundleni seminyaka engama-21. [4] Ku-2007, cishe ama-30% wabo bonke abesilisa be-LDS abaneminyaka engu-19 baba yizithunywa zevangeli ezingamaMormon; kusuka emindenini ye-LDS esebenzayo esontweni, cishe ama-80-90% wamadoda aneminyaka engu-19 asebenza imishini.
Izithunywa zevangeli zingathunyelwa emakhaya ngokwephula imithetho yezimishini, futhi kwesinye isikhathi abafundisi bezenkolo bakhetha ukuya ekhaya ngenxa yezempilo noma ezinye izizathu ezahlukahlukene.Kodwa-ke, iningi lezithunywa zevangeli lisebenza iminyaka yonke (yamadoda) noma yezinyanga eziyishumi nesishiyagalombili (abesifazane).
Kusukela ngo-2007, ama-80% abo bonke abavangeli baseMormon babengamadoda amancane, angashadile, ama-13% kwakungabesifazane abasebasha abangashadile nabashadikazi asebethathe umhlalaphansi abayi-7%.Abesifazane abangathanda ukusebenzela imishini kumele bahlangabezane nezindinganiso ezifanayo zokufaneleka futhi okungenani babe neminyaka eyi-19 ubudala. Abesifazane ngokuvamile basebenza njengezithunywa zevangeli izinyanga eziyi-18. Imibhangqwana eshadile esethathe umhlalaphansi, ngakolunye uhlangothi, iyakhuthazwa ukuthi isebenze ohambweni, kepha ubude bayo bokusebenza bungahluka kusuka ezinyangeni eziyisithupha kuya kweziyi-36 kuye ngezimo zabo namandla abo. Noma yimuphi umuntu osethathe umhlalaphansi ongashadile naye angabizwa ukuba asebenze kulokho okwaziwa ngokuthi yinkonzo ephezulu yezithunywa zevangeli . Emashumini amabili edlule, iSonto LDS likhuphule ikhwelo lalo lokuba izithunywa zevangeli esezikhulile.

Ukugqoka nokuzilungisa
[hlela | Hlela umthombo]Izithunywa zevangeli zesikhathi esigcwele ze-LDS ziyadingeka ukuthi zilandele ikhodi yokugqoka.Phambilini kwabesilisa, lokhu bekubandakanya amabhulukwe adla ngoludala, amnyama namabhantshi amasudi, amahembe agqokile amhlophe, kanye nezibopho zokuzilibazisa.Kwabesifazane, kwakugqokwa izingubo ezinesizotha nezingcweti noma ama-blouses namasiketi obude obuphakathi kwethole.
Ngo-2013, iSonto le-LDS libuyekeze amazinga alo okuzilungisa.Izinsizwa bezingasadingeki ukuthi zigqoke amasudi amnyama noma isudi ephelele phakathi nemisebenzi ejwayelekile yokuguqula abantu nsuku zonke.Kodwa-ke, kufanele bahlale kwizembatho zobungcweti ezihambisana nesiko elimhlophe nothayi.Isibonelo, isudi enemibala elula iyamukeleka.Bavunyelwe futhi ukugqoka ijezi noma ivesti lesudi phezu kwehembe labo lokugqoka futhi bayakhuthazwa ukuthi bagqoke othayi abanemibala.
Izithunywa zevangeli ezingodade (abesifazane) zingagqoka iziketi nezingubo ezivale amadolo abo.Abesifazane abasebasha bayakhuthazwa ukuthi bagqoke ngemibala namaphethini, futhi bangagqoka ubucwebe obufanele nezesekeli.Ngo-2018 kwamenyezelwa ukuthi izithunywa zevangeli zesifazane zingagqoka izigqoko zokugqoka uma zifuna, ngaphandle kwalapho ziya ethempelini nangesikhathi sokukhulekelwa ngeSonto, izinkonzo zokubhabhadisa, ubuholi bezemishini nezingqungquthela zamagceke.

Kwezinye izindawo lamazinga aguqulwa kancane ngokuya ngokuqonda kukamongameli wezithunywa.Isibonelo, ezindaweni ezishisayo, ezinomswakama, akudingeki amajazi amasudi, futhi amahembe okugqoka angaba nemikhono emifushane.Izingubo ezivamile zingagqokwa kuphela ezimweni ezilinganiselwe, njengalapho izithunywa zevangeli zisebenza kanzima noma zivivinya umzimba.
