Hi, I'm Amanda

I live in Arkansas and run my own business. I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I am married to a wonderful husband and have two beautiful daughters. I love doing family history. I own a tax preparation business in our town. I am a convert to the church. I was raised Southern Baptist and converted when I was 20.

Why I am a Mormon

In 1993, I met my husband at the store where we were both working. We started dating and he invited me to come to church with him. As soon as I walked into the church, the spirit so strong and everyone was very friendly. I started takinig the discussions and join the church. I am the first in my family that became a member and have enjoyed every minute of it. Our branch is a family and we work together to share the gospel and support each other. I am so glad that I joined. It made a big difference in my life and the direction that it was going. I am glad that I know that my family will be together forever.

How I live my faith

I am in charge of our family history center and help everyone with their family history. I am an assistant in the women's organization.
In the community, I am involved in many different programs. I am actively involdved in whatever my girls are into at that time. I am a member of the local Red Cross and Salvation Army. I am president of the Youth Bowling League. I own and operate a teen club for teenagers to come hang out.

What is being a Mormon like?

Being a member of the Mormon Church is just like having an additional family. I enjoy the time that I spend there and spend with other members. I love service and this church not only does service but encourages all members to be part of it.

Being a Mormon is just like being anyone else. We eat, sleep, go to work, vote, date, marry, etc. There are, of course, things that we don't do such as drink or smoke, see explicit films or pictures, but I think that helps us become better people. By avoiding temptations we're able to live happier, fuller lives while still enjoying those things that God put us on Earth to enjoy. We were placed on this Earth to be happy and, for me, that's what being a Mormon is like-being happy.

How can I find someone to talk with, in person, about the Mormon religion?

Taylor answered...

A. You could go to a mormon.org profile from someone in your area that has a facebook link, and locate them that way!
B. You could go to the link on mormon.org that says "request the missionaries"
C. You could go to the link that says " Find a Church" and come visit us. We all would be more than happy to meet you to and explain why this message is so important for all of us.
