no allergies! I already made sure of that. And no vegetarians... last elder was though.

I am divorced single mom and since my ex moved out I have not been able to feed the missionaries dinner. I wanted to make sure they have been fed and sometimes they go weeks without a dinner invite on their calendar. So I wanted to get them a gift card for a grocery store to buy their food and other needed items. Turns out the missionaries are not allowed to take gift cards. So I decided to buy them groceries, some cleaning products, and hygene items. I have done this a few times but I have no idea what to buy them. I have repeatedly asked the missionaries but they are just too nice to give me a list. Can any of you returned missionaries tell me what I should be buying them? I have no idea how long they have for lunch or even if they get to return home for lunch (they do have a vehicle).

OH MY GOSH. That has to be the scariest thing I have ever watched. Getting so close to the mountains..... gives me sutters thinking about a different outcome.

Welcome! I completly agree! It is starting to turn on the news and murders only get 30 seconds of time because there are so many to go through. We must all treat each other with respect and love and when that happens the world will change. It all starts in the home; how we treat others, how we deal with frustration and disappointments, how we deal with sucess, how we manage responsibility, what value we place on material objects.

Do you visit teach? If you aren't assigned to anyone yet, you will have to tell the RS president. It is a really great way to get to know some people. I am so thankful that I was able to visit teach a sweet & sassy 82-year old lady in my ward whom I love dearly. We have absolutely nothing in common but I made a friend out of someone whom I probably would have never gotten to know otherwise.

Wow this is a tough situation that I can relate to in my past. Bottom line you have to do what is best for YOU. Yes it will be tough to attend church without your wife and then come home to an angry wife for a while. She'll get over it when she realizes you are changing into a BETTER man. What wife can complain about that?? However, do not push church stuff on her. I would suggest that you have a sit down with her and tell her you are planing to go to church every week and some weekday activites. Explain you might later have a calling which will take some time and planning. Tell her she can ask you anytime about anything church related but you will not mention it unless she asks. I would save the tithing talk until when you are ready to start paying it! That would cause more friction then what is needed at this time. Please know that Heavenly Father is so pleased that you have begun the process of returning to the church. Keep praying and have faith that everything WILL BE OK!

Thanks for the greetings! Ben, can I go to a singles ward if I have a young child? I thought they wouldn't have a nursury or primary. There is a YSA ward in my area but didn't think I could go. Anyone know about this? .

I am a recent divorcee with a 3 year old son. I certainly didn't expect my marriage to fail after only 5 years but there had been so many things happen where I could no longer trust my husband. We married when I was inactive but became active when my son was born. So now I am a single mom in my branch. I am not bitter against marriage and do look forward to the day where I can marry in the temple to a worthy man. So what is my next step? I am so scared about attending any singles activities ( I assume I would be in YSA because I am 25) because I know no one there. Can anyone tell me about YSA and the activities? Thanks!
