BYU Students Encourage Mormons to Share Their Voice Online

November 3rd, 2008 by Karen Merkley | 3 Comments | Filed in Member missionary work, Mormon

If you're new here, read more about the More Good Foundation. We help members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormon church) share their beliefs on the Internet. Learn more about what Mormons believe or talk with Mormons at LDS.net.

Public Relations students, Ashley, Brett, and Kate, assisted More Good Foundation at a service booth at BYU (Brigham Young University) on Friday, October 31, 2008, surveying students about their willingness to share their Mormon beliefs online.

As part of their ongoing research to assist the foundation in facilitating online conversations about Mormons–our faith and our lives–these students shared information about ways other students can use the New Media to engage in the conversation on the Internet.

We appreciate their efforts to help us and help others participate in increasing the dialog about who we are on the Web.

To join the conversation, or for more information, please contact us at email@moregoodfoundation.org or visit our websites (Click on tab, “Our Sites”).

Mormonismo.net Fuels Spiritual Interest in Gospel of Jesus Christ

October 9th, 2008 by Karen Merkley | No Comments | Filed in How We Are Helping

Carlos, a visitor to Mormonismo.net, has been led to the waters of baptism in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (sometimes referred to as the “Mormon” Church).  He shares his witness of the truth below:

Quisiera agradecer a la iglesia por permitirme conocer la verdad por medio delos misioneros sud, ya que antes de ceptar a Jesucristo en mi vida y mejorar como individuo y progresaren mi vida espiritual, yo era musulman y tenia un sincero anhelo de conocerla verdad y a pesar de todo no sabia como pensaba de Muhammad ( salalahu alehi wa salam ) ahora se que criterio tiene la iglesia sud de muhammad (saws), agradezco mucho a mi padre Celestial por permitirme conocer la verdad restaurada del evangelio y la plenitud de la verdad por medio de nuestro amadisimo profeta Joseph Smith ya que en una oportunidad el se comparo al profeta ismaelita, sse con todo mi corazon que este evangelio es verdadero y no tengo la menor duda de ello y lo dejo en el sagrado nombre de Jesucristo nuestro salvador AMEN”

Translation: I would like to thank the Church for allowing me to know the truth through the LDS missionaries, because before I accepted Jesus Christ in my life and become a better individual and progress spiritually I was a Muslim and had a sincere desire to know the truth.  Above all I didn’t know what to think about Muhammad. . . . Now I know what criteria the LDS Church has with respect to Muhammad, I thank my Heavenly Father very much for allowing me to know the restored truth and gospel and the fullness of the truth through our beloved prophet Joseph Smith given that in one opportunity he was compared to the Ishmaelite prophet.  I know with all my heart that this gospel is true and I don’t have the slightest doubt, and I leave this in the sacred name of Jesus Christ our Savior, amen.
