    VIDEO: World-Class Parkour Athlete Trades Workout Gear for Suit

    American missionary uses his skills to share his faith in New Zealand

    Utah 20 year-old, Calen Chan, didn't want to be a missionary. He had mountains to climb—or more accurately, urban landscapes to traverse.

    But that all changed, in a moment of clarity, when he made the decision to put his YouTube-fuelled Parkour career on hold to serve a two-year mission with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    Watch Elder Chan, as he is called as a missionary, share in this new video why he came to New Zealand to make new friends and share his faith.
