"Members often ask me why I joined this church and why I’ve stayed a member. It’s difficult to explain with mere words, but I tell them as best I can. It’s my birthright to receive all the ordinances, and my being in this church is my walk with Jesus."

-Alice Faulkner Burch, My Lord, He Calls Me: Stories of Faith by Black American Latter-day Saints

"It is the dream of parents and grandparents that their children and grandchildren have a better lot in life: better experiences and more opportunities. That was my dream for my children, and now it’s my dream for my grandchildren. I have seen that having the gospel in your life as a youth and living it opens doors of opportunities that allow more to be accomplished. The gospel provides more protection against the generational curses that seem to plague people."

-Alice Faulkner Burch, My Lord, He Calls Me: Stories of Faith by Black American Latter-day Saints

"Jesus has always stayed with me. Even during times when people I loved turned their backs on me, I was physically and verbally abused, members told lies about me, local leaders eschewed me, a gift of wrapped dog poop was left for me, letters were sent to me telling me to leave the Church because I didn’t belong, threats to kill me were made, and the unsuccessful attempts to harm me. Jesus has always stayed with me, blessing me and teaching me and reassuring me."
