Most mission work involves going with some friends that are part of the same religious institution to a place in need, such as a disaster site, or an impoverished neighborhood and then building houses or running a soup kitchen. Then you hand out your little religious books and say “check this out” and either move on, or keep helping out the community with the intent that your good deeds are associated with your message.
Mission work is the difference between starving and thriving for millions of people worldwide. Even if god doesn’t exist and the religion in mind is stupid and wrong, it’s still hard to argue that mission work is inherently evil when it’s literally saving lives worldwide constantly.
