"I was raised in a God-believing home, but I wasn’t sure that I believed in God myself. I started feeling this urge to pray and received an answer that God was real and that he cared about me."

“I find that I feel so much better and so much more myself when I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ than I ever did when I didn't care about what they were.”

“The Lord has set the standard, He's put forth commandments, and I know that when I'm keeping those commandments, I can expect God to direct me.”

“When I have a question or when I am really struggling in life, there is always something that I read [in the Book of Mormon] that will help uplift me.”

“In one particular point in my life I was as low as you could go. Strangely enough, that’s exactly when the missionaries had come to our door. It put me on the path that I needed to be on.”

“I instantly felt accepted, cared for, and loved [when I came to church]. Everyone was introducing themselves and making me feel so welcome. I felt like I was walking into a house with family.”

“To see these acts of kindness from so many people, to me that is church. That is what believing in Christ and serving others looks like.”
