Hi, I'm Cindy

I grew up in Utah. I love to be with my family. I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I am going to college and I am close to graduating. I love to play any kind of sport and I love to go running. I also love to read, play the piano, and go on hikes. I am the youngest in my family.

Why I am a Mormon

Although I have been a Latter-day Saint my whole life, I have still prayed to know that the Book of Mormon is true and I have received a confirming witness that it is. The Book of Mormon helps me feel the spirit and has helped me find answers to my prayers. I know that this church is true. I know that we have a prophet that leads and guides us today and that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and I know that God loves all of His children and wants us to return to live with Him.

How I live my faith

I live my faith by praying and reading my scriptures every morning and night. I look for opportunities to love and serve other people. I try to fulfill the callings I receive in my ward to the best of my abilities. I also try to grow closer to my Heavenly Father by trying to do what He would do and I just try to be a good person.

Can a husband and wife be together forever? Do Mormons believe that families will live together in heaven?

Cindy answered...

I believe that families can live together forever by being sealed in the temple. Heavenly Father loves all of His children and has given us families to help us be happy and be able to return to Him. I know that if we are sealed in the temple then we can live with our family forever.

YES!!! This is one of my favorite parts of the gospel. I believe that my family will live together in heaven. I will know my family as my family members. My husband is my husband for now and for all eternity. My children are my children here on earth and for all eternity. I know that if something happened to one of us that I will see them again. I love this about the church. Before joining, I always had a question about this concept and when taking the discussions from the missionaries this came up. Makes me love the church more and more.

What is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' attitude regarding homosexuality and same sex marriage?

Joshua answered...

In the New Testament Paul preaches against homosexual behavior, as does Moses in the Old Testament. In this day, God still speaks against homosexual actions through His holy prophets. Regardless of the good and bad choices we make in this life, we are each beloved sons and daughters of God. We were spiritually begotten of Him before the world was, and He offered the Plan of Salvation to us so that we could return and live with him again after this life. Not one of us here on the earth is perfect. We each struggle with different things on this journey and because of those things we could never return to Gods presence unless a greater power came to our aid. Christ has provided the means whereby we can overcome these things and return to God again. Anything can be overcome, for Christ has already overcome the world Alma 711-14 We strive to love everyone, for everyone deserves that. The Family is being bombarded on every side with the evil influences of Satan, and to stem that tide we must stand for the Sacredness of our Families. We celebrate and honor the Sanctity of the Family, and invite all men and women everywhere to do the same.
In the words of Beloved Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley, "We believe that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God. We believe that marriage may be eternal through exercise of the power of the everlasting priesthood in the house of the Lord.
