Do you have a testimony you would like to share? Its surprising looking back all the little things that you can see as Heavenly father guided me to the Church. It was more than just a seed but a whole bunch of them leaving a path of blooms everywhere I went.

    Yes, the little ones are so fun. I worked for a long time in 1 (of 3) of my ward's nurseries. Each Sunday I had 20-24 18 month olds! It was so hectic, but I loved it. They are so sweet and love to learn and sing. Now I live in a much smaller ward and get to be involved with all ages. It is so amazing to see their testimonies grow and be a part of their spiritual growth!

    Welcome Amy.
    Thank you for joining. :) I am glad so many of us our excited about it. I have been doing some research on some of our food laws and its amazing how they purposely worded stuff so it would have loopholes. Our scientist for food are very corrupt and reading a lot of it made me realize just how badly we do need Heavenly fathers help with diet. We as a country are literally being attacked by corporations who make food and if they support anyone in office will encourage certain wording in laws or cut funding. I found out much much more which makes me surprised that I did not see that most diets are false prophets.
    We as church members and brothers and Sisters really need to support one another and really study our Words of Wisdom and keep our eyes ears out for the prophets talks on meal planning, dinner table etiquettes, etc. That way there will be no doubts on how we are suppose to eat. PRAY, pray, pray!

    Welcome Suzette

    That is a really nice calling and a very surprising one too. Is it for a shelter as a missionary service?
    I Hope it would be gathering clothes for any age child with a single parent. In our ward they had to be baptized into the church after the birth of the child. If they are still members they have to get married or give the child to LDS social services or be excommunicated. I know with me after I almost died and the doctor kept trying to talk me into abortion I was not gonna give my baby up so I got married. ( at the time I did not know you could get re-baptized and thought it was denying the Holy ghost not to take one of the options) I was even asked to read and watch talks given by the prophet with explanations to why those were the options given to me by the bishop. I remind myself everyday Heavenly father intended me to marry this man knowing I would not give up my baby I fought so hard for.

    It would be nice to hear your testimonies as you continue your calling. I know they are going to need all they help they can get.

    Hi! It is sort of community outreach program. I live in a very small ward and fortunately we do not have any unwed mothers-to-be. We have single parents, but they are recent coverts that have kids. :smile: I am also a recent convert, I am about 7 months old, as me and one of my other friends who is a convert term it! LOL! I am thrilled that I finally found the true church! I had spent my whole adult life looking. I liked some things about one church and some about others, but nobody had all the information. Ironically I have been married to a man (for 3 years) that was raised Mormon, but had stepped away from the church for almost 20 years, he found his inspiration to re-aquaint himself when I started the lessons. I feel so lucky to have him! He is so kind and giving!
