Actually I moved it from another thread so it would start a new thread.

Welcome purplegal.

Is that "purple gal" or "purp" (as in purpetuating) "legal"?

Eh... shows I've been too analytical today.

Welcome!

I'm just hoping to get some answers about the spirit.

I can't start a new thread, so can someone point me to the FAQ that says how I can get permission? Thanks!

I can`t start a new thread either

I am from UK and was baptised into C of E as a baby as is the norm here.
I have never really clicked with that church but have always felt like I needed to find the right way to be closer to God.
I have a child who is autistic and it takes a lot of faith to keep going at times.
Over the last few months I have been drawn to look at Mormon info and straight away felt really at home with it all. I didnt drink alcohol or smoke anyway and have stuck to the Word of Wisdom over the last few months by giving up coffee and tea.
I am reading the Book of Mormon and have the leaflets from LDS online which are the same ones the missionaries use and I am going through them.
The difficulty I have is that I dont really know how to take it further or even if I can?
I have Aspergers which is a milder form of the Autism my son has......as a result of this things like going to church, giving testimonies, even talking to the missionaries would be excruciating for me so I have been avoiding it.
I know I cant be baptised without all that so have been wondering about just living my life this way without actually taking that step if that makes sense.....is that enough? or do I have to go through the baptism to practise as a Mormon.
As I said i am living my life the Mormon way by reading and learning from the scriptures, keeping to the Word of Wisdom, praying, and I am even trying to introduce Family Home Evening.
My husband is catholic but he respects other religions and has no problem with me going down the mormon route.
I really feel like God is showing me how to be a Mormon and wanting me to do it but my difficulties are putting constraints on it.

Welcome y'all


for those who can't start threads yet, its a security feature. I believe thread creation unlocks for people after 5 or so posts in threads that have already been made.
