Mitt Romney answers the question "What went wrong in the presidential election?"
SALT LAKE CITY — For Spencer Zwick, the realization that the man he’d worked for since the 2002 Winter Olympics would not be president didn’t hit until the morning after the election, when he started to introduce Mitt Romney at an event for donors. “One of the hardest things was standing up there,” Zwick recalled. “To just say, ‘Welcome Mitt and Ann Romney,’ this is the moment it struck me that, ‘Oh my goodness, he’s not going to be the president and he should be.’″
Is 'The Book of Mormon' good for Mormons?
The new Broadway show, The Book of Mormon, opened on Thursday to rave reviews and has immediately become one of the hottest ticket on the Great White Way. Since the show is written and produced by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, the guys who brought us South Park, the project had been met with intrigue from its onset; now, though, thanks to all the accolades, some are second-guessing whether the show is so controversial after all.

Mormon Video: History of the Relief Society
I am the “Additional Weekday Meeting Coordinator” (previously Enrichment Leader) in the Relief Society [organization for women] in my ward congregation. Ironically, all but two of my three sisters and two sisters-in-law have the same calling. In my opinion, this is the best calling in the Church. I am the party planner and the person that helps coordinate the activities that allow the women to do both the work of Relief Society and strengthen our bonds as sisters. I am married with four children. We have lived in Nashville, TN, Northern Utah, and a year ago moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, which we have loved! I enjoy cooking, baking, sewing, reading, traveling, and learning new things, which always ends up adding to my list of things I enjoy doing.

Elder Holland impressed by uniformity of Mormons' devotion during his travels
After traveling to the Middle East and three European nations from February 20 through March 4, Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve summed up his trip by saying that the uniformity of faithful devotion he found among Latter-day Saints of diverse cultures and nations was more striking than the differences in their languages and geographies. Elder Holland’s travels took him to the United Arab Emirates where he dedicated the Abu Dhabi Stake Center, the first building constructed by the Church in the Middle East, and on to the Netherlands, England, and Germany.
The other half of heaven: Debunking myths about Heavenly Mother
When Elder Neal A. Maxwell of the Twelve spoke some years ago in General Conference about the heavenly home-coming that the obedient can look forward to, he noted that our Mother in Heaven would surely have a role[i]. Yet, for most of us, singing the hymn O My Father is usually the only time the existence of a Heavenly Mother is verbalized. Given the fact that she is the mother of our spirits, why then do we talk so little about Heavenly Mother? The reasons for this silence seem to fall into three categories. When they are examined in light of the scriptures and the teachings of church leaders, all of them can be shown as “cultural assumptions.” None stand up to scrutiny.
