{What I Believe}

"Many are preparing to serve, not because they aren't married or have nothing else to do; but because they have a desire to serve and are therefore being called to the work. The reason so many are going is because in the next generation, Heavenly Father will be sending his choice Priesthood Army to the earth and wants to send them to mothers who have been properly trained and taught in the gospel. What better training can a young woman have than that of serving a mission."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley

"Today as I report to the MTC, I would like to share my brief testimony. I know that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ live, and that they love me. I know that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God and that Joseph Smith really was a prophet. I know that the Christ's atonement, the very last, sacrificial act is the reason I can have hope of returning to live with my Father in Heaven again and being forgiven of my sins. I know that families can be together forever, not just for this life. Simply put, I know this church is true. I'm so honored and humbled to have the chance to serve the God who had given me everything."
