it was awesome and i invited alot of people but alot of them didnt come.

but they so missed out...

but we had a good group... oh and i got a baby frog... haha nice huh

Just browsing...

i was surfing the church website. mainly looking for dances and all that fun stuff ... when i stumbled across this quote:

Give me a young woman who is virtous and who has maintained her personal purity. who will not settle less than a temple marriage and i will give you a young woman who will perform miracles for the lord now and through eternity.

Ezra Taft Benson.

This also reminded me of something Brother Haltermen had told me after the Trek, "Stay strong, the Lord has great things for you, he needs you and we need you."

It just goes to show that we all have a purpose. it just depends on if we rise up to accomplish what we were sent down here to do... It means alot that people will notice the little things you do... and they compliment you for them.

But i guess the worldly view of the church is that men have all the importance, but its not true women have their role also, and we love accomplishing what we need to do. and we are also tools in the lords hands, which i think is just awesome!

anti mormonism

as i was looking for a picture of a temple.. i stumbled across this site http://windysydney.blogspot.com/2007/11/mormontemple,html

i do not understand why someone would post such a descriptive blog about the church. I mean at one time those things had to be sacred to her... correct? in one instance she says baptisms for the dead are not right. well i plan to go and do that this Thursday, she seems to believe that when the people are baptised that they have the religion forced upon them, that they must take it, and she has also claimed to have backed this information with real facts. But isn't that claim wrong (correct me if I'm miss understanding) they still have a choice to be part of the church right?

but the fact that she claims that she doesn't want to be degrading and that the Mormon church is lying to everyone. its at least degrading to me. i mean these are things that i firmly believe in... and she acts like its all a lie. but she had to have believed once, even if the spirit feels like warm fuzzies, because it does, i know that from my pioneer trek, why would people cross those plains if they thought it wasn't true?

the church is such a tight nit organization that everything interlocks and works, so how can you say it isn't true... i don't understand how someone can be so confused on something so simple.

i love the church with all my heart and if some people consider it a cult, then tell me why the Mormon church was faster then the red cross getting supplies to all the natural disasters. i know you cant reason with people who despise the church but at least look at all the good its done and be happy that its helped people.

and if your supposedly going to be telling the truth, say the whole truth.
