unbreakable

My fiancee used to be Catholic and converted to the LDS church last month after seeing the goodness of the gospel, and he jokingly tells people that I converted him, and his family is mostly Catholic who accept his belief in the restored gospel. I want to understand his Catholic family's views and keep the peace. What should I do?

Thanks! I'll send her this link.

By the way, I never thought of personal revelation like that before. That should really help and maybe other family members might want to understand as well!

I'll take your advice.

Thanks for the advice. It should be helpful in my encounters with my uncle.

Thank you! At first my mom thought that I was joining a cult and told me so, but after she attended my baptism and began seeing more Christlike behaviour coming from me, she began to see what good that joining the LDS church had done for me. My brother is still pretty anti-Mormon in his views of the church, but he keeps his views to himself and we just don't talk about religion. Things have improved since then and my family relations have improved. The gospel, overall, has made my life so much happier. I wholeheartedly agree that letting faith in Jesus Christ show through actions show that we're Christians as well, and I think that she can see it. My uncle is another story and probably want to give me a lecture on *any anti-Mormon "information" that he can find. I pray this goes well.

I'm a convert to the church and I've been a member for nearly a year. I was going to go on a mission, but the Spirit prompted me to marry a close friend and fellow convert to the church as well. He was baptized recently and I'm having trouble explaining how important the temple is to us, not revealing anything sacred, and I plan to be married by the bishop in our ward. My mom wants to understand and what's the best way that I can talk to her about it? Our bishop is going to talk to her and she wants to talk to him to understand. How should I handle the situation if my uncle, a Southern Baptist minister, goes on an anti-Mormon lecture? I've heard tons of anti-Mormon stuff for a year now and some people just quit talking to me since I joined. I hear many misconceptions and most won't listen to me when I try to respectfully explain the gospel to them. What should I do?

I've been a member for nearly a year and I've been truly blessed by the gospel. It has made me so much happier since I joined last August and I know that Heavenly Father loves me, as the hymn, "I Am a Child of God," often helps me realize that I'm His child. However, I had foot surgery three years ago and I began having pains again in my foot this year, so the doctor did an x-ray and a cat scan, but it came out normal. Now, I'm getting a surgery done on the 24th. I've received a priesthood blessing for my pain and I'm always in pain, but I know that He will heal my pain. How can I be more patient for God's timing that I'll be better?
