About Me

I am Holly and I am 23 years old. I have been a member of "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" since I was born.

I love to read and am currently working on The Book of Mormon. I have had many wonderful blessing come from the "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" it is a huge part of my life.

Why I am a Mormon

I would like to bare my testimony that I know this Church is true and I know that there are living Prophets today. I know that the Book of Mormon is a true testament of Jesus Christ. I know that with faith and through the power of prayer that anything is possible if it is God's will. I know that through the Atonement we can be forgiven for our sins, if we repent and endure to the end. I also know that the Lord only gives you trials that he knows you can over come. I know that Families can be together forever and that we will one day live back with our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ. And I know that the Holy Ghost bares witness to the truthfulness of all things if you are seeking an answer through prayer. I am thankful for my family and the Church and for all the wonderful blessing that I have received. I am thankful for my church family and the many wonderful opportunities that I have in life if I choose to claim them and live righteously. I say these thing in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Personal Stories

Why do Mormons go on missions?

The Savior taught, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19) and Church members consider it a privilege to show their love for others and the Lord by sharing the gospel. Missionaries generally begin serving when they are from 19 to 21 years old, though many retired men, women, and married couples also choose to serve missions. Missionaries serve voluntarily for either 18 months or 2 years, receiving no payment for their service as official representatives of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In fact, missionaries pay their own living expenses as they serve throughout the world.Missionaries teach the gospel of Jesus Christ and perform community service in the areas they are called to serve and are instructed to have the deepest respect for the laws and customs of the countries where they serve. Some missionaries take special assignments to assist with health, welfare, or other needs. Many missionaries are far from home and welcome the opportunity to visit with and learn about the people they are serving. (Mormon.org)

What is Mormonism? OR What do Mormons believe?

Holly Anne answered...

1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
2. We believe that men will be punished for their own sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
5. We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.
9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon this the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
11. We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

What is done with the tithing that Mormons pay?

April answered...

Tithing is paid in faith. I know these funds will not be misused. I pay tithing because it is a commandment, and because I love God and want to give Him back a small porion of what He has given me, to futher build up His church. These funds go to build and maintain church buildings and temples and other like expenses. Our clergy is not paid. There is no collection plate. We simply pay our tithing, our fast offerings, we share what we have gladly. This is God's way. For this is God's church.
