Dear Family,
I am not usually such a political person but now that I am a grown -up and mom I have been more aware of what is going on in our world. I have been reading about what is still going on in California in regards to our church and CA's proposition 8 (Arizona's proposition 102) about making an amendment to state's constitution to keep marriage between one man and one woman. The propositions past , so now no stupid judge can overturn it. Since the elections on tuesday, The Los Angeles Temple and I am sure others in CA have been under constant protests and complete negativity towards any LDS church or person. There have also been protests here in AZ but I dont think it is anything like in California. Our Stake Conference this last week was a STATE wide broadcast, and they talked about this Proposition. We need to love everyone, but we can not support immoral issues. (whatever the issue is) In Ether 2:12 it says "Behold this is a choice land and whatsoever nation shall possess it shall be free from bondage and free from captivity and from all other nations under heaven if they will but serve the God of the land which is Jesus Christ." As much as I would love to have ocean front property, I would ask all of you to remember our Church leaders and Government leaders( especially in California,Arizona, And Florida) in your prayers. We love you all lots and lots!
