    I've shared Dorothy's story at Education Week but it is so much better to hear her share it herself. Naomi is our oldest daughter and Kurt our son-in-law. Dorothy is now our adopted granddaughter. Everyone in our family loves her and her amazing testimony.

    I just watched this video and we are signing papers to be licensed foster parents next Monday, because we feel there is a little girl out there who needs to be a part of our family( I'm not able to have anymore kids). When she said "The Lord took 2 broken people and put them together and made them whole... isn't that funny how He takes broken hearts & He mends them with other broken hearts!" I felt the Spirit so strong. I know hat little girl is coming soon and that we hope to adopt & get sealed to her someday... and that this video was a tender mercy from my Heavenly Father to me that He has a plan... our family is not complete

    Beautiful story! Thanks for making a grown man cry. This story is a wonderful example of how Gods plan is really eternal for each of us and reaches beyond the grave. Shows the redeaming power of Christ and his Atonement and how God is trying to gather all of his children back home to him through Christ and covenants.

    Nice friendly folks, but believe a false gospel.
    The Book of Mormon teaches that Moroni was a great man, a renown warrior who died and became an angel. The Holy Bible does not teach that a man can become an angel when he dies, this is false teaching. Therefore, since this teaching is false, Moroni is a false messenger and The Book of Mormon is a false Gospel.

      But Roger - Christianity is a false religion from its root.
      The Sumerians first recognised Yahweh as one of four god/esses; the God of Vengeance. The Israelites later adopted Yahweh as their one true god and Jesus re-represented Yahweh as the god of love in the New Testament.
      Christians believe there is only one god, but this one god has been brought across from a polytheistic religion and therefore Christianity is a false religion.

      Good to hear from you Carl. It would be a disaster to believe in
      a false religion like Mormonism. It looks like you have been reading
      false anti Christian material who's intention is rob you of eternal life in
      Christ Jesus. Why not read the Bible for yourself to understand what it says. Read Part 2 What is the Gospel?
