Researcher visits Las Vegas to speak about DNA Evidence for Book of Mormon Geography

After encountering anti-Mormon banners at LDS Church General Conference in 2003 stating that “DNA proves the Book of Mormon false”, Rod Meldrum began research on the subject.
A professional scientific researcher, with access to several world class research libraries and scientific search engines, Rod began a three-year process of in-depth research into scientific journals, historical accounts and the scriptures. His research led to some rather unexpected DNA findings and then to questioning the origin of the theories surrounding the geographical setting of the Book of Mormon.

Discovering Talents, Building Character, Entertaining The Community

ballet dancers 508 Margie Seastrand has always loved the performing arts and educating children.

Help 4 LDS Parents - Strengthening our Families…Protecting our Homes

family b w 408What is “Help 4 LDS Parents”?

As parents and leaders of children/youth in the Church, we’ve found there are certain issues and topics that should be addressed with all young people in order to give them the proper guidance they need to get along in this world. As parents, we have been commanded “to bring up your children in light and truth” (D&C 93:40). But the world is moving farther and farther away from the standards we value as Latter-day Saints, and we struggle to raise our kids “in the world but not of the world.”

Appropriate & Lovely Formals

Truman prom 408 We are about to enter into that magical time of year so beloved by flower shops and tuxedo rental stores: Prom Night. Call me a hopeless romantic, but I just could never see the logic in spending all that time, grief and money on some other guy’s future wife. A nostalgic look back in the old Yearbook from my Senior year confirms my suspicion – not one couple at the dance ended up staying together.
Take it from a bishop and father of four daughters: the whole boyfriend/girlfriend, going steady, high school romance thing is way over-rated.
