there is more...

So me and my girlfriend of two years are in some trouble for breaking the law of chastity. She is a convert and none of her family are members. We are going to try and get married to follow a bishops council. The problem is were both just 20 and we don't know how to explain it to her parents. They will freak out and throw a huge fit, probably much worse then when she got baptized. I know I shouldn't care, but, I want a good relationship with them. Do I tell her parents, or does she? How might we explain it to them?

you guys are so helpful. I wouldn't mind getting married civily, she really wants to be married in the temple since she has never been in one before. But, I think we will all talk about it.

Hey, I have a question, and it's rather scary for me. I have been engaged since December 8th, 2010. This week I confessed that we had broken the law of chastity to my student bishop. I am attending BYU-Idaho, but my ecclesiastical endorsement has been pulled. She is not a student and is a convert for a little over a year. We have been together for two years. So she is in less trouble. The problem I'm having is someone I knew did the same thing and he had a stake disciplinary council. Since he was an elder. ( which I am not an elder. I am old enough to be but, was never ordained) I will be having a disciplinary council as well, only it is a ward one. But, the problem is this is not my first time with this problem, same girl and everything. My friend who went through that process was told to leave his girlfriend. He was also excommunicated. This scares me that my Bishop my ask me to do something similar. The problems I have with this are... -Were engaged -She maybe pregnant -The bishop already told me we should work towards a temple marriage -Her bishop said we should get civilly married (which we don't want to) Could he actually tell me once we get in there to break up? My dad is in the stake presidency back home and he said that in his handbook they can tell people to be removed from the thing that is causing them to sin. After he told me this it scarred me so much. Anyone have any idea on this? Thanks
