I loved reading your post about a satelite conference. Isn't it wonderful. Hello from san jose. I wanted to share my blog. ldspoetrybykellymiller.blogspot.com
I thought you might like this poem:
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

We believe other lands had visits from Christ.
They saw signs in the heavens, they knew His name.
He taught them, they felt His wounds, He dried their eyes.
The Book of Mormon testifies that He came.

We're Christians otherwise nicknamed “The Mormons”.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints-
And our missionaries can teach you lessons.
But, you can read on if you have time constraints...

Facts
Here are some facts to introduce us to you...
The Lord's Church was restored in 1830.
We've priesthood, apostles, and a prophet, too.
Our pioneers frontiered and proved we're sturdy.

We've members in 176 countries
With 13 millions members, we are rising.
We don't smoke, drink alcohol, coffee or teas.
We've unpaid clergy, we serve and pay tithing.

Faith in God
We believe that God is our Heavenly Father.
And we are literally His spirit offspring.
That's why our names start with brother and sister.
And why the gospel has a familiar ring.

We worship our Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ .
We try to be like Him, we pray in His name.
Those with priesthood are authorized to baptize.
Through total immersion we're never the same.

Family
Every Monday night's reserved for the family.
Where we'll teach each other, sing, pray and have fun.
We're known for having practiced polygamy.
Biblically restored, then abandoned, now shunned.

As families, we attend Sunday services.
We instruct each other using the scriptures.
In temples we perform sacred ordinances.
That seals families committed to their futures.

Fruits of the Gospel
The Savior said, “By their fruits, ye shall know them.”
For our Lord, we want to be in His image.

To be healthier, we have the Word of Wisdom.

In love, we've a divorce rate below average.

We've shown our excellence in education
Missionaries surpass in the languages,
They're paying their own way, it's not a vacation
With compassion, we serve and share from wages.

This Was Simple and Short
These are a few thoughts, that come straight from the heart.
May these words build a bridge of understanding.
So together we'll rise up and make a new start.
Let's seek for the good, with friendships outstanding.

If you're still wanting to know a little more
Our doors stand wide open, as the Lord calls you.
You're what our missionaries hoped and trained for.
To witness that for man Christ died and lives too.
-Elder Ballard

Finally figured out what was wrong with the Apostle Info and I think I've got it fixed. You should now be able to access this spreadsheet as well.

Enjoy!

All right, I uploaded my scripture reading schedule to Google Docs so you should now be able to click on the link to access it. Hope this helps. Let me know if it continues to give you problems. (I did notice that this process changed some of the formatting, such as cell width, so you may need to do some adjusting to get it to print correctly on one page.)

For some reason Google Docs doesn't like my Apostle spreadsheet so I'll need to keep working on that. I'll leave another comment here once I get it working correctly.

Oops! The file itself is located on a Yahoo Groups site and it looks like it won't let you have it unless you're logged on. And here I thought I had it all figured out.

If anyone has any ideas of how I can make them available to everyone, I'd be glad to hear them.

I am interested in your Scripture Reading Schedule...
