EFY 1997 Jenny Jordan Frogley - His Hands

Wherefore, my beloved brethren, I beseech of you in words of soberness that ye would repent, and come with full purpose of heart, and cleave unto God as he cleaveth unto you. And while his arm of mercy is extended towards you in the light of the day, harden not your hearts. - Jacob 6:5

But behold, he did deliver them because they did humble themselves before him; and because they cried mightily unto him he did deliver them out of bondage; and thus doth the Lord work with his power in all cases among the children of men, extending the arm of mercy towards them that put their trust in him. - Mosiah 29:20

Why people call us Mormon?




I just recorded some important points I recorded from Sister Anderson's talk who was our Public Affairs Missionary.

I just like she said that we should always make some statements that prick the interest of people to ask "What church is it?"

So I'm thinking what statements that might sparks the curiosity of Singaporean or my friends to ask me "What church is it?"

She gave an example

"We know weather is under control of God." Say it when you're caught in a rain with your co-workers.

Here are some that I can think of

"We know by drinking coffee and tea will prevent us entering to Heaven" Say it when you're bringing your own Milo 3 in 1 to tea break of any training / conference you attend. (Normally they just provide coffee and tea)

"We attend church for 3 hours every Sunday and our primary kids like to sing 'pop-corn popping on the apricot tree'" Say it when you pick up your young child at neighborhood childcare center.

"We think that watching TV is wasting of our time and it's a stumbling block of our spiritual learning " Say it when your neighbors or friends come to your house for party / holiday celebration and find out there is no TV in your house.

"We are not going to wear spaghetti dress because we need to respect our body which is given by God" Say it when you're out to Siloso beach with your friends.

"We know that all kids (under 8 years old) are to enter to Heaven without baptism" Say it when your Christian friends from other denomination invited you to their child's baptism.

"We like to hear the prayer of my youngest son (3 years old) before our family go to bed" Say it to your friends who are exhausted of troubled family relationship.

... Many, many more to add to it. May we be the light and salt as our Savior taught at in 3 Nephi and Book of St Matthew.
