Hi I'm Clayton Allred
I was a math major at the University of Oklahoma and am currently a full time missionary in Michigan. I'm a Mormon.
About Me
I am the middle of three boys. I live away from home to go to school. I love to read and do math. I make art using geometry, paper and a sharp knife. I like listening to classical music or podcasts and taking long walks around campus. I am currently preparing to serve a mission in the Lansing Michigan area.
Why I am a Mormon
I am a Mormon because I know it is the only true church on the earth. I love my savior Jesus Christ because he makes it possible to not only live a life of joy on earth but allows me eternal joy. I know that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God, and that he truly saw God the Father and Jesus Christ in the sacred grove. I know that it was through Their direction that he restored Their church upon the earth. I know that modern prophets who communicate personally with the Savior direct His work upon the earth. I have been blessed to be born in a family setting where my spirit has room to grow and love and become like Christ, and where my testimony has been nurtured through repeated experiences and constant companionship of the Holy Ghost.
How I live my faith
I live my faith by following the example Christ set for us when he walked the Earth, I do my best to love everyone I meet, I love providing service for those around me. I try to help others feel God's love for them through how I treat them. To me, my faith is all about love, and I try to share my love for God and His love for all of us every day.
