Hi I'm Marisa
I'm from Dallas, Texas. I go to Brigham Young University.I'm a missionary in Kennewick,Washington. I'm a Mormon.
About Me
I am the oldest of three girls going to Brigham Young University. I want to be a doctor when I grow up and starting this June I will be serving a mission in Kennewick Washington. In High School I lived life to the fullest by being in a full course load, a member and then captain of my High School's' Color Guard and an active member of all church activities. I love to read and hang out with friends.
Why I am a Mormon
I am a Mormon because the happiness it brings me could not be attained any other place. Even though I was born a member of the Church I still had my own conversion as a teenager. I know Joseph Smith was a prophet who restored the gospel to this dispensation. Being a mormon gives me opportunities to not only serve others but come closer to my Heavenly Father when I am feeling of less worth. I am a mormon because without it I would be so lost and my family would probably be broken up. I'm a mormon because only in this church can my family be together forever. I am a mormon because without the gospel I wouldn't be myself.
How I live my faith
I live my faith by getting up everyday and trying to live like my savior would have me live. I love my savior and Heavenly Father and hope to live with them again one day. I live my faith by trying to serve other people and using the lessons I have learned from living my life as a Mormon to make the world a better place.
