Hey everyone,
I am new to the sight. In fact I am probably telling my age ( 50) but I have never even been on a forum before. I am a high school teacher of geography and American history. Sometimes I teach world history too. It is a small school in Louisiana so I have to teach several things. I am also the stake Releif Society president and the gospel doctrine teacher in my ward. I live with my 80 year old father because he is legally blind and I help take care of him. He helps take care of me too. I have two mini Dachshunds - Schnoodles and Kaiser. They are adorable. I also have a cat named Scrapper. No husband or kids but tons of nieces and nephews.
I joined the church when Iwas 9. My family was taught by the missionaries. The minute I heard the Joseph Smith story I knew it was true. I even started to cry and clapped my hands when the missionaries told me the story. Ever since that moment I have had a deep and firm testimony of Joseph Smith and his work of the resoration. I love Joseph Smith because I know that if I follow him and his teachings I will be led straight back to my Savior- Jesus Christ. I am a returned missionary - California Ventura Mission. I don't know what else to say. I love to read the scriptures. I read them and Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith every day. I love the new family search. I have been doing tons of geneolgy on it. I enjoy going to the temple but don't get to go too often because it is about 3 1/2 hours awy. But when I do go I get to do my own work. Well, I guess that is enough for now. I called this life nad misadventures because the name of my life history I wrote is called The Life and Misadventures of an American Saint.
