For us, as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Moroni is a prophet from the Book of Mormon and the last one to write on the gold plates.
For us, as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Moroni is a prophet from the Book of Mormon and the last one to write on the gold plates.
Moroni lived many years ago on the American continent and witnessed the destruction of his people. Before he died, he hid the gold plates so they would come forth in the Lord’s time.
Many years later, Moroni appeared as an angel to the prophet Joseph Smith and showed him where the plates were located, which were later translated as the Book of Mormon.
For us, Moroni represents the fulfillment of God’s promises, the restoration of the gospel, and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
The statue of the angel Moroni on top of many temples symbolizes that the gospel will be preached to all the world

Janie called me from the
Boston Airport at 5:30pm.
She was flying to
Mozambique for humanitarian
work with Care for Life...
via
7 hours to Amsterdam,
10 hours to Johanessburg,
overnight there, then
2 hours to Mozambique.
Week 1 with a group of 20,
Week 2 with a
different group of 20.
She gets home June 28.
I'm praying for her
safety and success.

Janie told me that Michael got
really sick in India for 5 days.
One day he had to be in the
hospital. Of the 3 performances
they did in India, he was too sick
to dance in two of them.
He and Darby ate the same food,
so they don't know what caused it.
He said the bottled water tasted so
bad, they just drank bottled coke.

Eternal Life
As
members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we believe that
death is not the end of life, but a step forward in God’s eternal plan. Because
of Jesus Christ and His Resurrection, we have the hope that every person will
live again.
When
we say goodbye to someone we love, we naturally feel pain and sorrow. But even
in grief, there is peace in knowing that families can continue beyond this
life. We believe that the spirit lives on, that our loved ones continue to
exist in the spirit world, and that one day we will see them again.
That
is why hymns such as “God Be With You Till We Meet Again” carry such deep
meaning for us. They remind us that goodbyes on earth are temporary. Through
the Savior’s Atonement and the promises of the gospel, separation is not
forever.
The
Plan of Salvation teaches us that Jesus Christ conquered death and made
resurrection possible for all mankind. Because of Him, we do not face loss
without hope. We mourn, but we also trust in God’s eternal promises and in the
joyful reunion that awaits faithful families.
Even
during moments of heartbreak, the gospel gives us comfort:this
is not the end, and
through Jesus Christ, we
will meet again.
