I would see it as another blessing and an honor to be able to help provide that amazing technology available in the latter days to spread the Gospel. Eternal perspective my friend....

Thank you...we feel very blessed and humble. It is quite a privilege and immense responsibility to be a parent and to be entrusted by Heavenly Father to rear a child. We are so grateful to have been blessed with two sons and both are becoming great examples of the Gospel in action.

I have no idea what this says....except for the bytor part.

My son has sent some amazing emails home while on his mission in Italy. Thought I would share one which is his final one: Ciao tutti per l'ultima volta! Wow. Just wow. 2 years have come and gone so quickly. It's incredibile. I want to keep this brief but sincere. First of all though, Marco Morcioni was baptized on Saturday night and confirmed the following morning. He asked me to confirm him and I did. The Spirit was so powerful. Marco stood up and everyone could see that he was a completely different person. He hugged one of the brothers who stood in the circle and came away crying. He's so sensitive to the Spirit that it's incredibile. One of God's children has just started his journey on the straight and narrow path that leads to salvation and I was able to be a part of it. I love being a missionary. More than anything else. This work, these experiences, the lifestyle of living the gospel to the very highest has shaped and even created pathways in God's plan for me. I am so grateful for that. I love this mission. I love every single aspect of it. It pains me to think that Friday night I'm going to have to remove the nametag and be released from having that unique power and authority that only full time missionaries can have. It saddens me. I'm not worried about the future though. God has promised to always light the way before us. I put all of my trust and faith in Him and I know He's going to lead the events of my life. I am very tired. I've given everything I possibly could to the Lord. I've given Him my whole heart and done every single little thing I could and He has blessed me more than I can possibly imagine. I have fought the good fight. Atleast this one. I imagine there will be many more ahead, but I'm much more prepared now. The Gospel of Jesus Christ and this mission have changed my life. But more importantly than any of that, they have changed my eternity. I believe that we are all born with a natural hole in our heart that can only be filled by the Gospel. Nothing else fills it perfectly. The Gospel of Jesus Christ - His love, His example, His teachings, His perfect and infinite atonement - is what brings us salvation and the promise of eternal life. I love Him. And I am forever grateful for Him. The atonement is real. I've seen it in the lives of others and in my own life. I love this gospel. I love the Lord and I love my Savior who will always lift me up when I fall. No matter what. "Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in him, and deny yourselves of all ungodliness; and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness, and love God with all your might, mind and strength, then is his grace sufficient for you, that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ; and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ, ye can in nowise deny the power of God And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenant of the Father unto the remission of your sins, that ye become holy, without spot." My invite is the same as that. Come unto Christ and be perfected in Him. He's doing that with me and I know and bear my testimony that He can do that and will with anyone and everyone who will simply come unto Him. Vi voglio un mondo di bene. Non vedo l'ora di vedervi. Sono davvero contento per questa missione e per tutte le benedizioni che ricevo dal mio Padre nei cieli. "Sì, io so che non sono nulla; quanto alla mia forza, sono debole; dunque non mi vanterò di me stesso, ma mi vanterò del mio Dio, poiché nella sua forza io posso fare ogni cosa; sì, ecco, ho operato in questo paese molti grandi miracoli, per i quali loderò il suo nome per sempre" Alma 26:12 Ci vediamo fra poco :) "Yea, come unto Christ, and be perfected in Him..."

If you are already decided on what fund you wish to purchase...you don't really need a broker to do it for you. American Funds has a pretty decent web sight That said they are advisory funds, meaning they have loads. ( I have been in the investment business 25 years) whereas, Fidelity or Vanguard, Janus and multiple others are no loads and all have balanced funds. C shares have fairly high internal fees, 12B1 etc. Vanguard and other no loads do not....maybe .25bps....

Assuming that I hate gay people is a wrong assumption and my two sons do not have any hatred toward homosexuals or anyone else for that matter and neither do I. I think that homosexuality is certainly a sickness of the mind and of the spirit....you are free to disagree, many do, That said, I was referring specifically to people like Bruce Jenner who is apparently attempting to become a woman. Call me crazy, but that sounds like mental illness to me.

I find homosexuality revolting. Am I a homophobe....I guess. But, I don't wish them any ill will or harm and would never consider being rude or hateful to them.Though if looks could kill, I shot a lesbian couple a look that would have many years ago when they were acting out and I was with my then very young sons. They stopped.... We live in a world ripe with iniquity and have become so cowardly that wehave to pretend that same sex marriage is a okay or that homosexual behavior isn't unnatural and all the other classifications that have united with them are somehow something other than mental illness. See Bruce Jenner....

Sounds like your father loves you and only wants what he thinks is best for you. As you are discovering, God and the things of God can only be understood by Spiritual experience. Describing how or why we believe because of these experiences is a bit like describing the flavor of salt to others. I hope your family attend your baptism, the Spirit will be fantastic and hopefully they will begin to understand a bit. Congratulations and welcome to the journey down the straight and narrow path that leadeth to Eternal life...

When u roll to an IRA with whichever firm, most all charge a "custodial fee". $60.00 isn't unusual and some are more. You could do a fund direct account with American Funds or Fidelity, etc and I think the custodial fee is about $10.00 annually.

Live long and prosper....

It;s the pic Vort...u should go back to the gangsta avatar....much more likable.

I sat in on a DC once and the brother was excommunicated for multiple sexual transgressions as an endowed and sealed member of the church. I don't recall the SP saying anything about covenants per se, though I do recall him explaining that the excommunication meant that he was no longer a member of the church and no longer had the gift of the Holy Ghost. While forward thinking as JAG describes perhaps, I remember the somber tone of the council and everyone, myself included felt very sad for the brother who seemed truly broken. He is still not re-baptized and I hope he finds his way back. His wife was guilty of the same sins and was not excommunicated and received a very short (3 months) informal discipline....
