All About Mormons

A missionary visiting Brazilian friends in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil.

I prayed to find a church that cared for me and would not ban me. I met the missionaries, I believe this is the one true church because I recieved answers from my prayers. And only the true church of Jesus Christ cannot deny the gospel from anybody and this is the reason why they have not banned me and will not banned me. This church is true and the most amazing thing that has ever happened to me in my life… My pre mormon life wasn’t in anyway fun becoming a mormon has been the biggest struggle I have yet faced and I no now that God is happy with my descisions and he will guide my way. I first went to the church on the 1st of October previous to that I was arrested dailey constantly in trouble at home and banned from 87 churchs. I was brought up in a home where my parents didnt really get along much mum brought us up in church dad didnt agree with her taking us he would never give her money to take us so we had to walk 21 miles ever Sunday to church. We regually ran away from home me my mum and my 7 brothers and sister we once stayed in this caravan that was so small it barely fit one of us in never mind us all. Dad always found us. When I was 11 I was kidnapped by this man with a gun my sisters managed to find me before he was able to do anyting but it still terrifies me thinking about it. After that I began to hang around with the wrong croud at school I started getting in trouble, it started by back chatting teachers then skipping class then to more seriouse things like drugs and stuff. After a few years I started to to search for a church most churches got police or banned me but I found one church that didnt I lasted 9 month there then they banned me for two week I went back and I was banned another 9 times till they kicked me out forever. I continued going down hill from there and then one day whilst walking home from work I had a great urge to pray something I did maybe once a year if lucky. After praying I felt so warm so encouraged but did no why, I bumped into two missionaries they didnt stop me but I stopped them I asked them what they believe I didnt want to go to there church as we had always been warned away from them so I had to find out why. They invited me to a fun evening at church but I made an excuse as to why I couldnt go they inivited me to church on the Sunday I made another excuse so they invited me to a fire side I still made an excuse but ended up going and I’m so glad the perciviered with me. During my time of investigating the church I lost all the friends I had my family gave me so much stick and told me if was to get baptized then they would never speak to me again. When they told me that I didnt ever thing I would get baptized but december 1st I new I needed to be baptized we set the date for 24th of december and breaking the news to mum and dad was terrible the whole family was horrible and dad refused to sign the forms for my sister. Mum signed them without dad knowing. On the 24th we were baptized into the church it was the most amazing thing I ever did. I know this church to be true and I pray that so many others have the chance to see how amazing it is I have a testomony of the church and no that the 10 weeks since finding the church has changed my life for ever. 18 months from now I just pray that God will help me to be prepared to go on mission myself.
