We didn't know why the Lord moved us to a little trailer in the mountains. But participating in the Personal Finance Self-Reliance course helped us refine our discipleship and fix our finances - even though at the time, we didn't have much money and soon would have none.

A tornado can level a town, but build up a community. Working with Helping Hands to clean up after an EF5 helped prepare me to serve a mission - answering questions about the Church and showing that Christ-like service means actual service.

I just realized that in the decades since my mission, I can't remember giving out a single Book of Mormon. I need to repent and do better.
I am not ashamed of the Gospel Of Jesus Christ, but I am chagrined by my lack of action.

After Stake conference, I was inspired by the stories of those who have bravely shared the Book of Mormon with their friends. I also, randomly, felt like it was time for me to get a dog. The next week, I adopted a dog and its previous owner and I connected over a short discussion on shifts in views of morality that have occurred over the past 30 years. I later sent him a copy of the Book of Mormon with my testimony of how it helps me align my morals with God and he was happy to have a new theological book to read!

My family history journey started when I was 3 days old, sitting under a desk at the Federal Archives while my mom scoured microfilm. When I do the research my mother taught me to do, I feel closer to her and my ancestors who passed along this great work for us to do.
