Keyoshi

I was supposed to go to church with my boyfriend this past Sunday.... but apparently work changed my schedule without telling me... so I ended up having to work instead... which really made me sad because he had a Talk that morning which I really wanted to be there for. But I was able to go to church with him later on that night... and it was very nice. It was the first time in 7 years that I had see and actual choir and piano played in a church. I didn't realize how much I had missed that. I can strongly agree that church has felt like a boring history lesson. I never liked going to church because of that... and also because I never felt like I was accepted. But when I went to church with him I had people walking up to me, thanking me for coming and being interested. Mormon's are so devout in their religion and it makes me want to cry because I'm so happy to see that. If I had been to a church like this when I was younger, I would have be so much better then I am now. But now that I have started to read the BoM, I have actually noticed a change in myself. I'm happier, and closer to God then I have ever been in my life. I actually had the privilege to speak to two Missionaries last week, and by the time I was driving home, I started crying because I was overcome with this unbelievable feeling of joy and acceptance. I truly believe that it was The Spirit that I felt that night. I had only felt it once before... and was so happy to have felt it again. Also, I will have to check that out. As far as I see it... I"m going to be joining the church and converting. I already love it so much... and I'm so much happier now that I am reading God's word and bettering myself to follow the path he wants me to walk. Anyway, sorry to have rambled on. And sorry I didn't respond sooner, I have been horribly busy. ^^;

@Connie Thank you for the welcome :3 @Melissa82 I have found that Mormons have been helpful as well. I had a good friend in high school that was/is a Mormon and she didn't really set a good example, so I ended up getting a very bad view of the religious group. But now that I'm dating a Mormon and am asking question, I see what it's all truely about. It's very interesting. I actually plan on going to church with him and his family next Sunday. : )

Hi, I'm Kristin; you can call me Keyoshi if you prefer to use usernames. A bit about myself. I'm a Baptist, but have recently started dating a Mormon and have become very interested in the religion. I have started to read The Book of Mormon and have asked many question. I still have so much to ask... and I would love to go to church with him some time. It's a big part of his life and I want to learn all I can. I really feel like it's the right thing for me to do when I'm sitting a reading... it just... makes me happy. Does that make sense. Anyway, chat, talk to me, ask me something. I'm open minding, which is why I'm here. I want to learn. : )\
