Hi, I'm Bryant

I'm from Washington, I love sports, I love learning new things and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I am currently serving in the Pennsylvania Philadelphia Mission. Before the mission I was your average everyday kid. I enjoyed Basketball, Frisbee, movies, snowboarding, wake boarding and well everything else that goes with boating! I am from Seattle Washington and I love it there. I come from a family of six, my mother and father are both from Utah and I have 3 brothers. I have completed two years of collage and have an associates degree. When I return home I plan on continuing my education as far as I can. I will most likely be going into a computer science major where I hope to earn a degree that will keep me entertained for the rest of my life.

Why I am a Mormon

Well, both of my parents are members and because of that, I was raised up in the church. Despite what may sometimes tend to be the popular belief this is NOT why I am a member. For me it was a conscious decision that I had to make with my Heavenly Father. Now I can never look back! All the love that God has given me here is indescribable. For me, I am a Mormon because I know that God wants me to be.

How I live my faith

Currently I live my faith by serving my Heavenly Father 24 hours of the day as a full time missionary. I am not being paid to do this in fact, I actually saved up money so that I could be here now. Here on my mission I go around knocking on doors and trying to help others come closer to Christ. As a missionary I also have the opportunity to do service for as many people as I possibly can. It was not too long ago that we got up at 4 in the morning to go and help someone with some yard work. When I go home I will try to live my faith similarly to the way I do now but not in a full time sense. I still wish to help people as much as possible, both physically and spiritually.

What blessings can you receive from reading the Book of Mormon, the Bible, and other scriptures?

Bryant answered...

I think that one of the great blessings that we receive from reading our scriptures daily is receiving answers to our prayers. It is amazing how we can be wondering and praying about something and then when we open our scriptures..... there is the answer!

Are there restrictions based on race or color concerning who can join The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and have the priesthood?

Jeff answered...

Of course not! It really doesn't matter where you are from or what color your skin is. The only things that matter are the content of your character. If you are worth to be baptized and live the gospel according to it's principles, then you are worthy to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Official Declaration 2, found in the Doctrine and Covenants, states "Every faithful, worthy man in the Church may receive the holy priesthood, with power to exercise its divine authority, and enjoy with his loved ones every blessing that flows therefrom, including the blessings of the temple. Accordingly, all worthy male members of the Church may be ordained to the priesthood without regard for race or color.” As long as you are worthy, you can be any nationality.
