Hi I'm Juliet

About Me

I am a 22 year old lover of life. I am a recent college graduate and am enjoying what my father has been calling the "real world". I have two dreams in this life. The first is to have a family. The second is to have a career with the Church teaching teenagers. I like to eat, cook, date, love, laugh, and grow.

Why I am a Mormon

I was baptized at the age of 16. I was a senior in high school. As I learned about the church, I realized that it had everything I had been looking for my whole life. In the Church and through the Savior I have found my purpose. I know who I am and who I can become. I experience the love of church members on a daily basis. I feel safety and security as I keep the commandments and follow the counsel of church leaders. I have more joy in my family and more optimism for the future. Every day of my life the Lord shows that the Church is His as well as why i need to be a part of it.

Personal Stories

Can you talk about the missions of the Church and your participation in them?

I served a full time proselyting mission for the Church in the Midwest US. I am grateful for the opportunity I had to serve my savior 24/7 as his personal representative. If you see missionaries walking down the street....talk to them! They will have nothing but good news for you.

How I live my faith

I've been blessed to serve in the Church in many ways. I have participated in the organization of activities, I have been a youth camp counselor, I have taught sunday school, I have assisted the missionaries in my area, and I have helped women in my ward in their efforts to look after and care for one another.

How are modesty and chastity related? How can parents teach their children to be modest in dress, language and behavior?
Juliet answered...

To be modest is to not attract undue attention to one's self. We must be modest in our words, actions, and appearance. As we strive to be modest, we begin to have a better understanding of who we are and who God is. We understand better that God loves us and has given us all an intrinsic value. One of the most amazing things Gos has blessed us with is our very own body. Gos expects us to love, respect, and care for our bodies. As we are modest in our appearance and cover our bodies appropriately, we show God and others that we understand that it is sacred. One aspect of having a body is being able to take part in physical intimacy- and act designed by God to take place between and only between married couples. Being modest shows that we intend to use our bodies in the way the Lord has instructed to. It also prevents us and others from becoming distracted with our bodies. We can teach our children that they are precious to God and never should have to feel that they need to dress or behave immodestly in order to get attention or approval. We should be frank with our children about the blessings our bodies bring into our lives. We need to teach them that we are modest because our bodies are sacred and because God is pleased when we show respect for their sanctity. Show more Show less

Chastity is reserving physical intimacy for after marriage. This sexual intimacy is such a beautiful and powerful display of love that it is to be reserved for that special time. When we do this we are showing the respect and love we have for ourselves and our bodies, as the gift from God that they are. Through our dress, language and behavior we also show our self worth and respect for who we are. The neat thing about being modest is the strong self confidence that is exhibited by your outward appearance. There is a power that comes from knowing that we are children of a loving Heavenly Father. As parents teach their children that simple truth, that self confidence will develop and as the desire to be modest in dress, language and behavior will come naturally. I know that this was the case in my life and am super grateful for the teachings of my parents and the high self confidence it cultivated in knowing of my individual worth as a daughter of God.

Why is family so important to Mormons?
Greg answered...

After I joined the Mormon Church I learned about the importance of families. Not long after that I realized that if I was going to follow this teaching I needed to tell my father that I loved him. That was very difficult for me since my dad and I argued so much. I spent the better part of 2 weeks trying to determine how I could do this. When the time came I found that the words came more easily than I had thought. From that point to the time he died, about 22 years later, he and I had an entirely different relationship. We were now friends. And I found how much I regretted all our arguments while growing up. And now I find that I miss him and more fully understand how important our families are. Show more Show less
