About Hannah
Expertise
I can answer questions concerning standard doctrines, scriptures, curiousities, Mormon culture and society. I will not respond to debates. I'm sorry, but there are some things that I simply will not answer, not because I don't want to, but there are some things that the LDS people do not discuss casually--it's only talked about within the temple. Though I am a member, I do not believe that anyone could convert anyone to a religion over something as impersonal as the internet. So I won't even try to.

Experience
I was born and raised into an LDS family and baptized at age eight. Though I'm still a young person, I can answer most things about the church. I graduated from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Seminary of Religion and currently attend Brigham Young University, where all students study Latter-day Saint religion as well as their chosen field.

Organizations
LDS church

Education/Credentials
Graduate: Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Seminary of Religion--100% grade, high honor graduate

Expert: Hannah - 1/13/2009

Question
I was baptised in August 2008. I had been with my boyfriend for 2 years and he wasn't happy about me becoming LDS as he thought it was a cult. However, recently he seems to be coming round to the idea and is not so critical.

I want to know what will happen when I marry my boyfriend. Would it be okay to have a sort-of blessing thing at the Mormon church, then an official service in my boyfriend's Anglican church?

Answer
I do not know the church's exact stance on this.  However, I can see it being a possibility.  Definitely you could hold an informal reception or something inside the church building for LDS church members if that's what you mean.  The church encourages marriage.

Tell me if you have any further questions.
