Hi, I'm Miguel

I'm a social worker, ride motorcycles, and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I work as a social worker in the Phoenix Metro area. I see first hand the challenges facing families and appreciate the saving principles of the gospel. I like to cook because I like to eat. I love a good book and am all about self-improvement.

Why I am a Mormon

I am a Mormon from childhood. That doesn't mean that I haven't had to find out these things for myself. I know that God can heal the wounded heart through the power of His Son. Because of Christ's sacrifice, I am happy and I am whole. There is nothing better than the good feelings of the Holy Spirit, every moment.

Personal Stories

Which of the Savior’s teachings have influenced you in your life?

Compassion. Being a naturally shy individual I've personally learned what it's like to be a little bit of an outsider. Learning about Christ and how He loves and welcomes all God's Children with love and compassion has helped me love and want to help the underdogs and the often looked over.

How I live my faith

Daily. Daily Study. Daily Prayer. Daily Practice.
Even hourly at times.

What do Mormons believe about “eternal life?”

Miguel answered...

We believe that we can live with God and Jesus Chrust forever in happiness and peace. If we want to. Our decisions and actions here in this life effect how we qualify to live with perfect beings. Who wants to live a perfect life with imperfect habits. I don't. Thats why we believe that today is "the time for men to prepare to meet God. Alma 34: 32

What is the Word of Wisdom that Mormons talk about?

Mark answered...

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.
