    I love people of India, they are good and loving. 20 years back I work in part of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and visited some place in Karnataka. Im a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter day Saints. I invite my Indian friends to come and visit the churches near you and accept the invitation from the missionaries to visit your home and learn the goapel of Jesus Christ.

    First prophecy of Moroni about Joseph Smith: "He called me by name, and said unto me that he was a messenger sent from the presence of God to me, and that his name was Moroni; that God had a work for me to do; and that my name should be had for good and evil among all nations, kindreds, and tongues, or that it should be both good and evil spoken of among all people."

    This brings to my mind the song "We Thank Thee O God for a Prophet" Which appropriately only has two lines in the three verses that speaks of the prophet. The rest of the song is on Christ and His gospel.

    The statue of Jesus looks like Jesus was from India. lol I expected Joseph Smith to also look Indian.
    Statues of Jesus (and Mary, for Catholics) tend to look a little more like the people of whatever country has a statue of them. Some Paintings too.

    We've been called to serve in the India Bengaluru mission and we couldn't be more thrilled about this event! The perceptions that government and civic leaders hold for our church as peace loving, of holding the same values of marriage and family, is important and significant. We are hoping it will mean more missionaries will be allowed to enter India. Currently we are waiting for Visas along with two other couples. I just sense India is ready to blossom like South America and Africa in the past. It's an exciting time to be called as missionaries to India!!
