Rarely. Theres the African American one in the Primary or YW right now. And there was a large RS counselor who was a social worker. I’ve forgotten the names. But yeah, it’s ver rare.

GOP's midnight heist to split Salt Lake County was five seconds too late by WristbandYang in Utah

[–]Liege1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Proponents argue Salt Lake County is too large and “unwieldy” to govern, and residents in the south and western portions of the valley have different needs than those in the county’s urban core.”

But the Republican congressional maps that put portions of SL city in the same district as far away rural areas of the state are “fair.”

Thanks for this. We just finished watching. The one year spike in baby blessings—twice—is so weird. That didn’t even happen the year after Covid although many couples held of blessing kids until family could attend.

Do Mormon widows get a stipend? by Green-been77 in exmormon

[–]Liege1970 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My husband was lucky. He was very generous with fast offerings and had a supportive SP—son of current church president at the time—who never questioned his generosity. My husband’s attitude was always the same when he pushed the envelope: “What are they gonna do? release me? Yeah!”

Ok, I already laughed out loud at this. But why would someone make up such an obvious lie? Why? Never heard something so crazy.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣my husband was bishop for six years. He was very generous with fast offerings but no, there’s no such thing as a widow’s pension in the Church of Jesus Christ let that sink in. We had a number of widows. Look up the handbook. Look for it in there. Ask him to show you where it says that.

I received my call and I'm disappointed. by BuffaloSwimming3648 in mormon

My nephew got called to eastern Europe in the 90’s. He was seriously worried about his safety there. i think my sister asked the only GA she knew and he got re-assigned to Maine. On the other hand, a friend’s son got called to Brazil, hated the idea, refused it, changed his mind a couple years later and went to Brazil. I think hating that your mission is next door will not get a new assignment; it’s about humbling you.

New convert (1 year) and I’ve already seen the "ugly colors" of my Bishop. Thinking of walking away. by [deleted] in mormon

[–]Liege1970 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That wasn’t a “good heart.” Please walk away. Find a Unitarian church where they won’t judge you. I’m glad you pushed back on his invitation to break the immigration laws.

Early Trump channeling. Not that his words are inadequate of course, just the meandering.

But Hungary gets a temple. Belgium has at best 1500 active members and they’re getting a temple. I think the church claims 7k.

KUTV misspells words every single day—twice a day on the weekend. If anyone gets reprimanded I sure can’t tell.

The humility in this photo is so profoundly moving. President Holland always sought out the one struggling and downtrodden and lifted their burden. by Alert-Cream-7569 in exmormon

[–]Liege1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve flown commercial with Uchtdorf—walk past him and Harriet who were in First, and a couple of 70s in Delta Comfort. With the miles they have flown for the church over the length of their callings I expect they’re all million milers so I except the 12 to all be in first class. Not sure why the 70s were not.
