Re: Aaronic priesthood boys can now baptize in the temple

Several years ago our ward would be assigned our youth temple nights by the temple (also sealing assignments, and ward temple nights). At the time, our youth attending those sessions would number from 10 to close to 30, a large number for our area. We actually had a harder time raising the required ...

The SLT is now reporting on the choir member that went public in her decision to quit the choir over the decision to sing at the inauguration.

Re: Amy and Jake Malouf- Alaska

So, are you Amy and Jake? No, not Amy or Jake. I just found their story to be so close to where many of us are. Wanting and needing to discuss our concerns, and finding that if we post something on FB, or try to discuss with someone, we can lose the big TR, or even our membership. It's great to see ...

Re: Validation emails

Found mine front and center, no more than 2 minutes after I registered.

Amy and Jake Malouf- Alaska

So glad to see NOM back up and running The Anchorage Press did a great write-up on the Malouf's story. Mormon Stories has a podcast done a week before there "court of love", and will undoubtedly do a followup, but this local story is done so well. One of the best I have seen done by the press. http ...
