2 Year Anniversary

Wow it's only been 2 years, seems like we've been together forever. You know as a little girl I've always dreamed about my wedding day. I thought about the colors, theme, bridesmaids, place etc. When I thought about the Groom I couldn't see his face but I knew exactly how I felt. What I wanted him to be like. As I got older qualities, attributes, values, & goals started to come more clearly as to what my future husband had instilled in him. So clearly that he was so near and I didn't even know it at the time. I love the scripture in D&C 88:40 "For intelligence cleaveth unto intelligence; wisdom recieveth wisdom; truth embraceth truth; virtue loveth virtue; light cleaveth unto light....." I'm not saying that I'm the intelligent one but I did admire his and our hearts were in the right place. And we did cling together like a magnet. We fit! He is my perfect piece! Things I lack in he's great at. We try to use our gifts and talents to strengthen our companionship. So we can be a better force for good to each other and others. I know that God loves me because he sent me Mark. My hope is that we can strive to do what is right even if we just don't feel like it or it just to hard. I know that as we do we can find peace & joy in this life and the life to come. Happy Anniversary to us and to all!

Juanita's Conversion Story

I feel that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the desire to play softball. The fact that the Lord was guiding me to play softball became more evident to me when I was offered a scholarship to play ball at BYU-Hawaii. The thought of attending BYU-Hawaii just seemed right and good at the time so I attended college there. My first year in college I was so excited to learn, play, and party. I discovered real soon that the students who attended the university had fun without drinking. I also discovered that the people were faithful and they had a strong sense of purpose and Identity. This compelled me to go on a spiritual search. I decided to take the lessons from the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As I took the lessons I was taught things that I heard before and things that were new to me. Such as the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. These were things that were a challenge for me to believe. So I took these challenges up to the Lord and I asked him if the Book of Mormon is the word of God and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I'm so delighted to share with you that I do know that the Book of Mormon is true and that the Prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that it's true because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of these truths and much more I decided to be baptized and serve the Lord. Getting baptized was the best decision I ever made. It's because of this choice that I enjoy the blessing of life today. The church is true and I find myself indebt to the Lord forever.
