It has been a little while I have been super busy like I said in my last post, since I have been helping out with the Utah Ogden Temple Open House. I love this quote that is shared in the video by Elder Jeffrey R. Holland: "I don’t know how to speak of heaven in the traditional, lovely, paradisiacal beauty that we speak of heaven…I wouldn't know how to speak of heaven without my wife, or my children. It would not be heaven for me. Now, you can say that’s wishful thinking, or you can say, 'That’s just because you love each other and you've gotten cozy here on earth and you like each other’s company.' It’s a lot more than that. There is something eternal in the statement that neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man in the Lord. That isn't just good sociology that is theology, it’s eternal." So some of you may be asking Why do Mormons build Temples ? From the days of the Old Testament, the Lord has commanded His people to ...

Today has been an interesting day! lol I have seen the snow/hail I have seen and heard thunder and lightning and I have felt the warm sun ALL in ONE day! Utah weather MAKE UP YOUR MIND! lol ok that is the end of that little rant :) I wish already that Utah would be done with the snow it shouldn't in my opinion be coming when it had decided to be nice and warm and sunny and then change its mind. Well with other things we can change and bring out the sunshine! That goes with today's simple principle. Third We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel. John 3:16 I personally KNOW that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel. We ALL make mistakes. We ALL have sinned at some point and will still sin at some point. That is why we have the Atonement of what Christ did for us. He died for us so that we may ALL ...

Today is the day I have been away from my home, family and friends for 9 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These 9 months have gone by sooooooooooooo fast! I can't believe in another 9 months I'll be home though.  I left home 9 months ago to serve a full time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I have loved serving the people in the Utah Ogden area and I will continue too for another 9 months! I KNOW this church is true! I KNOW my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ LIVE! I KNOW that Christ loves me so much that he would suffer and die for me and EVERYONE! I KNOW that we have a LIVING Prophet called of God named Thomas S. Monson! I KNOW because of this gospel I can live FOREVER with my family because of Temples! I LOVE this gospel so much! I am sacrificing 18 months of my life to serve and I love doing it! I would never take it back! It is also a sacrifice I am HAPPY to make!  Happy St. Patrick's Day! Please comment! If any questions or comments pl...
