I was born and raised in Kentucky. I joined the church in 1980 with my mom and brother. I was 15 years old at the time. I now live in Florida. I have two grown daughters, ages 26 and 20. I have been married for nearly 22 years. I work in a beauty salon as a receptionist.

Why I am a Mormon

I love the church. It has brought meaning and purpose in my life. I absolutely love being a member of the church. I love the sense of family no matter where you attend. It makes me so happy to know I am a faithful member!!

How I live my faith

I choose to be an example to everyone. I am currently working with the 5-6 years olds at in our sunday school program called Primary. I absolutely love all my babies. I have 6 in my class. I have served in many areas at church. The last calling I had was with the adult women in the church. It was a joy to be around all my sisters at a time in my life where I dearly needed them!!

What is the Word of Wisdom that Mormons talk about?

Pam answered...

The Word of Wisdom was revelation brought to us through Joseph Smith From Chirst. Joseph was concerned ahout the use of tobacco in meetings with the brethren. He went to Heavenly Father in prayer and inquired on it. The revelation he received can be found in Doctrine and Covenants 89. We should avoid coffee, tea, tobacco, alcohol, and that we should eat grains, fruits, and vegatables and also eat meat sparingly.

The word of wisdom is the Lord's law of health. We abstain from drugs, tobacco, alcohol, coffee, and tea, and are encouraged to eat wholesome food and grains, and not eat excessive meat. I am asked all of the time by my fellow residents at the hospital why I don't drink coffee, and how I can stay awake all night on call without it. I don't consider it a sacrifice, though, and am as awake and perform as well as any. It is true that the body will be more healthy when following the word of wisdom, the but the main benefit is spiritual. The knowledge that you are in line with the the Lord's teaching is the most important thing.

Mormons believe Jesus Christ is their Savior. Why do we need a Savior?

Trisha answered...

There are doctrinal answers to why we believe we need a Savior to redeem us from the Fall of Adam and to return us to our Father in Heaven that you'll probably come across here. But let me tell you why I need a Savior personally and what He does for me. Christ suffered personally for my pains, sorrows, and sins so that if I ask Him too, He can take them from me. I have been the victim of abuse in my life, and yet through Him I have been able to lay it all at His feet, freely forgive, feel peace, find love, and understand how important negative life experiences can be in teaching us humility. Daily He takes my pain and replaces it with pure love so that I am no longer a victim, but a victor. I need a Savior because He knows me, and through him my flaws become strengths and my pain becomes peace.
