Hi, I'm Jesse

I was born in LA California and grew up in Pheonix AZ. I am a freshman. I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I love playing video games. My hobby is RC's. I like watching anime. I enjoy being with my family a lot and being with my friends too. I like playing basketball and football although im not so good at them. My goal right now is to go to college. I would like to go to BYU

Why I am a Mormon

My family was already in the mormon church. We left the religion a while ago but we are back in it. We chose to go back to the mormon church because we didnt feel so much of the spirit of the Holy Ghost and we didnt understand well the other religion. The reason I keep going to the church is because I feel the Spirit of the Holy Ghost and I believe the church is the true church of Jesus Christ. What I would like to say in my testimony right now is that I believe this is the true church of Jesus christ and Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and he restored the true church. And I say this in the name of thy son Jesus Christ. Amen.

What is done with the tithing that Mormons pay?

Jesse answered...

The tithing is used to help make activities and create new temples for the church. It also go to people in need.
Lot answered...

The money received from members in the form of tithing goes directly to the headquarters of the church where a council decides what will be done with the money. Here are some ways in which the tithing funds are used:
1. Build, maintain, and operate temples, meetinghouses, and other buildings.
2. Provide operating funds for stakes, wards, and other units of the Church. (These units use the funds to carry out the ecclesiastical programs of the Church, which include teaching the gospel and conducting social activities.)
3. Help the missionary program.
4. Educate young people in Church schools, seminaries, and institutes.
5. Print and distribute lesson materials.
6. Help in family history and temple work.

*It is important to note that tithing funds are not used to pay leaders of the church. All leaders of the church are volunteers and receive no form of pay.
