Hi I'm Kolibri aka Bird Singing

About Me

I am a Native American from the Caribbean, Carib & Taino. I Crow by adoption from the Plain Bull family in Montana. I love going to powwows and dance either Northern Traditional or Taino dancing. I learned about the Church via a Native American Man whom I met in the Native American chatroom in msn. He sent missionaries and they came to my job to teach me about the Book of Mormon and this beautiful gospel. The Holy Ghost showed me that this church is the true church and was baptized in 2001. I share the gospel with Natives by explaining that our Lord Jesus Christ came to the Natives and taught them the gospel. I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father and my testimony is that He used the internet to bring the truth to me. I love music and sing all types of songs. Love children and the primaries are my favorite people. I am a mom of twins adult daughters. I am retired from government work. I can say that walking the road of a Mormon is not easy but I am victorious everyday for Satan has no room in my life. All my Relations, Kolibri

Why I am a Mormon

I am a Mormon because I am a Latter Day Saint. I was rescued by my Heavenly Father and I know this church is true. If you have doubts about this church, please pray and ask God and you will see that what Kolibri says is true. God Bless!

Personal Stories

How has the Holy Ghost helped you?

When I was learning from the missionaries, there were doctrinal concepts that were new to me. I was born in a Christian home and studied the Bible in Bible College and served as a Missionary in the church I had attended. I had so many questions about the love of our Heavenly Father. How can a just God send people to hell when they die because they never accepted the gospel? The opportunity after death to accept the gospel makes more sense and the Holy Ghost revealed to me in prayer that this is true. I no longer fear that I won't see my Mom and Dad again, I do not fear that my relations long gone are in eternal damnation. They are in the spirit world and have heard the truth. The Holy Ghost prompt me and I prayed and it was revealed to me that the LDS Church is the true church here on earth.

How I live my faith

My life is always a struggle but I do not struggle alone. I have a whole church all over the world and each individual testimony gives me the insentive to go on until I return to my Heavenly Father.

Why don’t women hold the priesthood in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? How do Mormon women lead in the Church?
Kolibri aka Bird Singing answered...

The women group is called the Relief Society. Relief because in the pioneer time these women were the strenght in a very practical way. They sewed coats from warm blankets for the men for the ones they had were worn out and torn. They helped to preserve the priesthood in this way. Today women serve the church and also teach the gospel. They are not second to men but they are who our Heavenly Father wants them to be. In the Bible and the book of Mormon there were no women priests, however, women today and in the past pray and serve just as much as missionaries and priests. I for one is the only Mormon in my family and I do not have a priest in my home. I believe that when I pray for one of my family members when they are sick I am building my calling to serve.

I feel that men and women both have different but equally important roles in getting us back to God. In God's eternal plan we were spirits in His presence before this life. To progress we needed to get bodies on this earth, then perform specific ordinances (eg baptism, marriage) to return to God after this life. Women were given the godly power to bring spirits into this world and give them bodies, then nurture and raise these children with God's inspiration and guidance. The men were assigned the responsibility (through the God's Priesthood power) to serve others and administer the ordinances that will bring God's children back to His presence after this life. Both roles are necessary and equally important to God's plan for us. I don't think women need the Priesthood to be powerful influences and to do God's work in their homes and in the church. I see men grow spiritually, and their characters become more godly when they act in God's name through using the Priesthood. I have never felt the need to hold the Priesthood myself. I can still receive all the blessings offered by the Priesthood, my prayers can be just as powerful, and I still have access to the inspiration of God in my life. Show more Show less

What do Mormons believe about the Bible? Do they regard it as Holy Scripture and the word of God?
Jonathan Richardson answered...

We believe that the Bible is the word of God, given through his Apostles and Prophets in the days of old. Through generations the bible has been translated time and time again, and now it stands with some of the simple truths of Christs teachings being either removed or complicated. That is why there are so many different views on what the scriptures teach, and so many churchs created for those views. We believe that God has restored those simple truths and clarified the complicated view through the Book of Mormon which is a record of the ancient inhabitants of the Americas. Show more Show less
