A Mormon Image: Sweaters for the Penguins
The sweaters that these penguins are wearing are designed to save their lives after oil spills off of the Australian coast. They were knitted by Aussie Relief Society sisters. Who says that LDS service projects aren’t fun? (And as Nate asked last time: Who got to put them on... Read More »
A Mormon Image: Weighing Eternity
An oft-quoted passage from our Bible Dictionary states that “only the home can compare with the temple in sacredness.” This statement has been concretely validated in the birth of our children. No experience I have ever had has compared in holiness with our experiences of welcoming our children into this world and into our... Read More »
A Mormon Image: Newport Beach Temple Wedding
or, an untraditional Mormon couple in traditional clothes. After the ceremony while I was walking through the temple halls, people were coming out from all over the place to gawk at my dress. I think most of them had never seen formal Vietnamese wedding regalia before. What’s funny is that the Vietnamese traditional... Read More »
A Mormon Image: The View from the Roof
Here's an image from 'The Roof' restaurant in the Joseph Smith Building. It's a family tradition to eat there for special occasions, this one being my mission call. I always love the view. Submitted by M. Dean Egan Read More »
A Mormon Image: Waiting by the Earthstone
This is a picture I took of my eldest son and daughter, waiting outside the Salt Lake Temple after my niece's wedding. As it was a Friday in June, there were many people waiting outside for wedding pictures. My children, while not exactly reverent and not at all quiet, certainly found plenty... Read More »
A Mormon Image: Life, Mundane and Sacred
This image shows my great-grandmother Sarah Day Hall standing at her front gate in Manti, Utah, in the 1930s. In her workaday clothes, behind her sagging fence, the life of this Mormon matriarch would seem not to have changed much from her earlier sharecropper's life in Alabama. The second image, though taken in her... Read More »
A Mormon Image: Turkey Bowl
Isn't that a great catch? Now take a look at the whole set of photos, as photographed by a beautiful woman (who knows the photo series coordinator): Read More »
A Mormon Image: Smiles

A Mormon Image: Memorial
from Bill of Wasilla, who writes: Dad is the man who lies in this flag-draped coffin. I will not say too much about him for now, except that he was a good father and that, thanks to him, and many more like him, most of them gone now, the evil dream of a... Read More »
A Mormon Image: Guardian Angel
This is a statue of an angel in the cemetery where my first baby is burried. I like that she's smiling. Death is heartbreaking but it's not only sad. I am also filled with hope when I think about my son. He is alive and happy and we can be an eternal family. It... Read More »
A Mormon Image: House of Learning
My sister studies outside the John Taylor building on the campus of Brigham Young University- Idaho. "..seek learning, even by study and also by faith." D&C 88:118 by Blake Read More »
A Mormon Image: Preparing for the Wedding Reception
Photo by L-s Sus, who writes: The picture is of my wife and son and was taken at my sister's wedding. It captures many themes that resonate with my concept of Mormon identity: Family, Motherhood, Nurturing, and Beauty. It also reminds me that we have benevolent heavenly parents who reach...
