How My Patriarchal Blessing Helps Me Face Cancer
It was a cloudy Sunday morning as I stood at the kitchen sink finishing the breakfast dishes. My two youngest children were watching a scripture video in the family room by the kitchen. I was lost in thought, and my cheeks were wet from tears. I couldn’t get my mind off the cancer that had invaded our home. My husband had been fighting it for several years, but now it had spread. My faith seemed to be wavering. My mind was crowded with “what if?” thoughts.
Rugby player Hopoate setting a fine example with mission
WHEN William Hopoate is confronted with a media scrum he shifts awkwardly, clearly out of his comfort zone. But thrust him in front of packed church pews to speak about his faith, and it's a completely different story. Next year, the quietly-spoken Manly winger will walk away from the riches of the NRL to embark on a two-year Mormon mission.
LDS Church says it is careful to avoid crossing lines with Romney in race
The LDS Church says it is not attempting to sway members to support Mitt Romney’s presidential bid after an email surfaced suggesting to Mormon leaders in Nevada to register the faithful to vote and named a contact person who appears to support Romney. "LDS public affairs specialist" Mark Severts last month emailed dozens of southern Nevada stake presidents, each of whom oversees several LDS congregations, encouraging a get-out-the-vote drive for members and saying that those interested should contact Ron and Judy Tobler, according to Jon Ralston, an independent Nevada journalist who formerly worked for the Las Vegas Sun.

It wasn't their church, but on this Saturday, members of the LDS Church's Lakeside 7th Ward and Lakeside 10th Ward treated it as if it were. It was about serving their common man and being good neighbors. It was also about turning a tragic event into a bonding experience between LDS faithful and members of the Provo Community United Church of Christ.
BYU coeds hold onto LDS standards on 'The Sing-Off'
It helped Laina Walker and Amy Whitcomb of Delilah immensely to have BYU's Vocal Point guys just down the hall in the hotel during the taping for NBC's reality show, "The Sing-Off." They could go with them to church and rely on them for the strength of the priesthood held by faithful members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Will service to the elderly be a casualty of decreased religiosity?
I’ve been haunted by statistics I read recently in a Deseret News article about the growing number of Americans who say they are not affiliated with any faith. My concerns are not that everyone should sit in a pew somewhere every Sabbath, or even that they read the Bible or Book of Mormon before bedtime.

LDS Church blocks abuse of proxy name submissions
In a letter read in LDS Church worship services last Sunday, the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints reiterated "the policies first stated in 1995 concerning the submission of names for proxy temple ordinances" and urged "faithful adherence to these policies by all members of the church." This week, the church has introduced a "technological barrier to prevent abuse of the New FamilySearch system," according to LDS Church spokesman Michael Purdy.
