Mormon.org: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

I'm a husband, father, grandfather, CEO and I'm a Mormon

About Me

My wife and I have been married since 1971. We have six children and 21 grandchildren living in 5 states coast to coast. We love family reunions at the beach, and try to find a house to rent big enough for all 35 of us to be under one roof for a week. It's a blast! I am a serial entrepreneur. I have founded or co-founded 4 successful businesses based on innovative technologies. The companies have been acquired by major corporations once we get them up and running. Innovation is my vocational passion. Perseverance is my forte. You can find out more about our family by clicking the link to our blog. Naturally it's all about our forever family!

The Spirit of God like a fire was burning within me. I HAD to bear my testimony.

About Me

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us-it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. ~~ Marianne Williamson ~~ I am a child of God.

After years of soul searching, I'm happy to be a Mormon.

About Me

I grew up surrounded by the natural beauty of Montana where I took full advantage of many outdoor adventures including; driving my car into a few lakes, being swept away by a raging river and getting chased by several wild animals, some of which were the human species. I joined the Navy when I was 18 for the opportunity to see the world. In the first week of living in a big city, I got mugged TWICE in the very SAME day! The money that I lost that day was well worth the story I get to tell over and over for the rest of my life. I am the proud parent of five of the greatest kids that I have EVER been the parent of in my entire life.

I'm a husband, father, grandfather, writer, musician, computer geek, and judo student--and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I have been a member of the Church since 1978. I was the first member in my family. My wife and I have been married since 1983. We have five wonderful children and a rapidly-growing number of grandchildren. I work in the Information Technology field, teach guitar, study judo, and I'm the author of several LDS-oriented books. I also write for the Examiner. I'm grateful to be a member of the Church and to have the restored gospel in my life.

We raised 6 children in Colorado. Now we're empty nesters in Arizona. Photography keeps family ties alive and makes new friends.

Since my children and grandchildren live a state away, I like to stay in touch with them through family photos. My favorite thing to do is to make photo books about their lives, and vacations we share together. Also, I belong to a camera club.

I'm a Fisherman, A Golfer, I collect stuff, love IDAHO! I'm a John Wayne Fannatic, I love Christ, My family rocks! & I'm a Mormon!

About Me

I love fishing because I can get away from the hussle and bussle of the world, to enjoy the beauties of nature that God created for us all! Such as eagles flying high, the peacefull sound of a river, & bright colors of wildflowers. It's also a time which I can enjoy the company of my family who I love! We've been fishing the same river for 60+ years. I played Golf on my high school team, now I just play for fun with my family. I love John Wayne everything. I collect many things. I live at home with my Mother, Father, and older Brother, Collin, who's Autistic; with this I've learned a lot about others who have dissabillities and I've come to know that everyone, no matter what ailments we may have, that we're still God's children and he loves everyone the same! My family is awesome! I love stories of my ancestors. I attend college. I served a mission in Western Washington State, in which I've learned many things about how God works and how we obtain blessings in this life from being obediant to his commandments! I've gained a powerfull witness of how Jesus Christ's Atoning Sacrifice works in all of our individual lives; thru him all our weaknesses can be made strong...and that's just a start on its power! I was baptized at age 8. I've felt the influences of the Holy Ghost in my life in which I've had to learn to listen to it. By doing so, I've seen the miricles of God in my life. This is one of the ways I've always known the church is true, that God still speaks to us today.

I'm a sheepherder, a rancher, a photographer, a writer and a poet, but most important to me -- I'm a Mormon.

About Me

Being a Mormon is not new to me. I'm a sixth generation member of the Church. My third great grandfather was a coal miner near Glasgow, Scotland and joined the Mormon Church in 1847. He immigrated with his wife and three sons to Utah, where the family sheep ranch was started in the 1860's and has carried on to the present time. I started working the sheep ranch with my father at the ripe old age of two months. I was born in April and in July I was on the mountain at the 9,000 foot level riding the saddle with Dad. We graze the sheep at this elevation each year from July 1st to September 30th, so this was my home, living in a 7 X 12 foot sheep camp. We hauled our drinking water from a spring on the back of the horse in a five gallon can and cooked our food on a small wood-burning stove. A summer sheep herd consists of 1,000 ewes plus their lambs, which usually makes it over 2,000 sheep that your trying to keep track of. Herding sheep on open range requires that you get up before dawn and saddle your horse so you can be to the herd before they get up and start moving. You do this so you can move them all off on the same side of the ridge towards the creek where they can graze on the lush green mountain browse and grasses and drink the clear cool water from the stream. The herd shades-up under the aspen and pine during the heat of the day, then starts moving and grazing again about 3:30. It is also important that you be there then to move them all to the same side of the creek so they pull to the top of the same ridge and bed down together for the night. If you don’t, they pull to the top of two different ridges and will be miles apart come evening. Thus the need for the sheepherder. I spent every summer of my life, until I was nineteen, in the mountains doing just this. Each year Dad would give me a little more responsibility. At age three I was riding my own horse even though my legs barely curved over the edge of the saddle – still a long ways from the stirrups! By the time I was seven or eight he would send me out alone from time to time just to get the feel of being in charge and having to do the job on my own. When I was big enough to saddle the horse by myself, around age 10, he would actually leave me alone on the mountain for a few days at a time, so I would learn to take control and do it myself, knowing he wasn’t there to pick up the pieces if I let the sheep get away and scatter. The year I was fourteen he turned the herd over to me completely. He only came by once a week to bring me supplies. When I was seventeen, he didn’t even do that. He gave me the pickup truck and turned the entire mountain operation over to me. That meant, besides herding my own sheep, I had to drive to town once a week, over 20 miles of rough mountain roads, load hay and grain for the horses, salt for the sheep and buy groceries for the herders, then deliver them to all our other herds. I also had to move sheep camps periodically for all the herds as they moved up or down the ridges. When I got married, the cycle began again with my children. Though not easy, it was a wonderful life, learning to live and work and play together without many of the outside influences so prevalent in the world today. I graduated from college with a degree in photography. I enjoy presenting views of the world around us that others don't often see, at least not from my perspective. I'm also a writer and a poet. My focus in writing is to uplift and inspire. I'm married. I have six children, two sons and four daughters. I'm a grandfather of fifteen. I love life and my family.

I'm an ice cream-eating, chaco-wearing, hiking-going, travel-crazy, nature-loving, study-a-holic, and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

Well, I'm Tawny. I deeply enjoy the great outdoors--running, cycling, tree climbing, camping, hiking, swimming, sky and scuba diving, traveling, star gazing and longboarding barefoot. I'll eat anything ice cream. I am a free spirit. I love life. It's such a journey and it's SO FUN! We just have to soak it up. I'm a college student studying Marriage and Family Therapy. I'm fascinated to know what it is that makes families thrive, be successful, and contribute to society. I'm also studying English and Spanish; I loooove being able to communicate with people and understand them and their culture. I've learned that, although we're all different, we need the same things, and the gospel of Jesus Christ applies to ALL of us--no matter who we are or where we live. I'm not exactly sure what'll happen in the future, but I know it'll be good. My faith gives me such hope in the future; even though it's unknown, it'll all work out!

I'm a hungry patriot, politician, martial artist, astronomer, full-time worker, husband, a humorous father and a I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I love the martial arts. Next to my Father in Heaven I credit my study of Taekwondo to what level of confidence and physical skill I have. The arts were there at an early age to facilitate normalcy of a medical condition that could've cost me my life. Though I am unable to actively pursue the arts as I once did I do honor and sustain it's precepts in my life. I am a patriot. I am loyal to the flag of the United States of America and the Constitution upon which this nation is built. Though my service in the United States Army was brief it did help me maintain a humility and awe for what it takes to defend the interests of this nation. May the flag so wave to the satisfaction of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and all the great men and women who have served honorable capacities for this nation. Especially those whose names are lesser or not known. I am honest. I've learned hard that honesty is the truest and best policy which to base your life. Though difficult and may put you in a pickle honesty will set you free. With honesty you are worthy of the freedom and liberty afforded you by your nation and God. With honesty you qualify yourself of the love of your friends and family. I love astronomy and the study of celestial events. I love history and the volumes it teaches us about the future. I love computers, internet design and it's proof of the glory of God - intelligence. I guess to break it all down into a nutshell I am a child of God.

I grew up in Colorado, served a mission in Canada and returned to Canada to marry my wife and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

I am huge into music... especially piano. I've been playing for about 16 years. I like all different genres except rap and metal. I also play guitar and have doing that for about 6 or 7 months. I'm also really into web design and plan on getting a webmaster certificate within the next year. My goal is combining web programming skills with music and making a living for my family that way. Life has always thrown us it's different challenges but we give our best in being representatives of Jesus Christ through it all. I also love inline skating, biking, computer games.... oh ya, and cereal!! I love cereal. As for my personaly I'm very very different. I was diagnosed with what the world calls ADHD Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder but I don't really think of it as a disorder. My mind just works a different way than most, and I wouldn't change it for the world. Sometimes I am the worlds best multitasker and other times I can't remember one thing from another if my life depended on it. I am very expressive and sporatic, but when I get going with something that intrigues me I can focus better than most for hours and hours on end.

I'm an artist, an electric guitar player, and a juggler. I love my wife and our children, I love my life, and I'm a Mormon.

About Me

By profession I am a cartographer, and before that I was a pizza delivery driver and a juggler at an amusement park. I graduated from college in December 2002 with a degree in Geography. I married my lovely wife in January 2003 in the Mormon Temple in Los Angeles, California. We currently live in Southern California, and have three daughters. Besides my religion and my family, the most important thing in my life is being creative with playing electric guitar, juggling, drawing, and writing. I'm also a fan of Major League Baseball, and played baseball for about ten years when I was younger.
