Frank, Allyson and I are all members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (aka Mormon). You may ask "How did they become Mormon?" Well...it all began in Dec of 1998...
I lived back in New York with my family and my mom wanted to teach is the true meaning of Christmas. So she sees a commercial on tv about a movie from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and my mom shrugged it off and changed the channel. And it was on AGAIN! She changes the channel to a Spanish-speaking channel...and it was the SAME COMMERCIAL but in Spanish! Haha. Mom said "What the heck!" and called. She told them to "just the video in the mail and don't come over!" (Remember, we're from New York). The day they were coming to see us, my mom made my sister and I get our brother's dressed because we were "going out"...
Well...we talked to them for three hours straight and three months later, we were all baptized!
When Frank and I met in 2001 and I told him what I was (by then I was inactive because I joined the Navy and didn't go to church) and he said "Cool...you can't get me to join!" I tried so hard to get him to church. We would fight every Sunday and he wouldn't budge. Then it happened...
The Passion of The Christ came out! Frank wanted to see it so we went. And it changed him. Next thing you know, Frank asked to see the Missionaries! We've been so Blessed when we both decided to follow the gospel and apply it to out lives!
On Wednesday, October 26, 2011 (which was our 10th Wedding Anniversary), we were sealed in the Atlanta temple for time and all Eternity! And once Allyson was born, she was automatically born under the covenent!
