Please note that this book is my own work. It is not sanctioned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or anyone else. It is a compilation of my own experiences, beliefs and questions. My family has been in the church for generations. The first Mormon Palfreyman was a woman by the name of Hannah Palfreyman who joined the church in England and came to the United States to settle with the Mormons. She had to walk across the plains from Iowa to Salt Lake City, Utah where she was then asked to settle with her children in Springville, Utah. I am grateful to her for her decision to live her life according to the dictates of her own conscience. My life is better because of her sacrifice.

My son Sam just returned from his two-year mission in Singapore and Malaysia. His brief note to me about the book is the first comment to grace this site. I invite you to add your comments or questions.

Comments:

"I continually am reminded of moments from your book as I serve out these two years. There are so many familiar feelings, both for better or for worse, as I experience the roller coaster of emotions felt on a mission. I love teaching. It makes me sincerely evaluate myself and how I can better show my love for others."
