I’m not mormon but my boyfriend is. I want to join the church so I can marry him and be happy. What do I need to do to begin the process and to prepare myself to be ready to go into the temple?

Hi Thanya. I'm very happy that you're interested in the Church and that you plan to get married soon. The Church is wonderful for families. Since you'll be starting a family soon, it's a great time for you to become a member!
I think it's excellent that you want to be sealed in the temple so your marriage can last forever, even after death. After you baptism, you can spend the next year preparing yourself to enter into God's temple. I'm very grateful for the knowledge that my family will be together forever. That knowledge is a great blessing in my life.
For those who wish to become members of the Church, there are two initial steps:
Meet with Mormon missionaries. These missionaries will teach you about the gospel of Jesus Christ and help you to be sincerely converted in your heart. You can request a missionary visit online.
Good luck, Thanya. I hope you find the same peace in the gospel of Jesus Christ that I have found. May God bless you. Let me know if there's anything more I can do to help.

- Visit a Mormon chapel to see how we worship and to meet members of your local Mormon congregation. You can also speak with the missionaries directly to schedule your first visit. You can learn the address of the Mormon chapel nearest your house online as well.
