After losing her entire family and everything she owned, she was guided to safety as she found refuge with a Latter-day Saint family in her native Sierra Leone. Touched by the teachings of the Restoration, and full of gratitude for all the Lord had done for her, Mariama wanted to wear her own missionary nametag. With barely a single change of clothes and a Church-sent hygiene kit as her only worldly possessions, she made the trek to the United States and began a full-time mission on Temple Square.<br />   <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="239" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kZL3mlQZ4Kk?rel=0" width="425"></iframe><br />The Sistas will be talking with Mariama about why she has chosen to share her story and where her life is today.

Don't Forget to Pray

We come from families where you "say grace" even if you're at a public restaurant. Sometimes it ain't no thing but a chicken wing and other times it's slightly awkward and depending on your age a little embarrassing. Maybe this could be an option:<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="266" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/j9JUqS4Q2A0?feature=player_embedded" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="320"></iframe></div><br />Even if it was available at restaurants we don't think our family would indulge in pre-blessed food. (1) They're picky about who "prays on" them or their food and (2) We got that family that likes to hear the sound of their own voice, blessing the food can sometimes turn into a mini sermon.<br /><br />Do you bless your food at restaurants? Do you do so out loud or silently? Kids, is it embarrassing to pray for food out loud in public?<br /><br />God is Only a Prayer Away,<br />Sista Beehive & Sista Laurel<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"></div>

(More Pics on our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sistasinzion" target="_blank">Facebook</a>!) We were inspired by "<a href="http://www.ldschurchnews.com/articles/62083/All-are-alike-unto-God.html" target="_blank">All Are Alike Unto God</a>" an official statement from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to put together this piece of music, which we explained in <a href="http://www.sistasinzion.com/2012/06/all-are-alike-unto-god.html" target="_blank">Saturday's post</a>.<br /><br />When we first read the statement we talked about what Jane Manning James, <a href="http://www.sistasinzion.com/2011/06/elijah-abel-black-mormon-pioneer.html" target="_blank">Elijah Abel</a>, Green Flake, <a href="http://www.sistasinzion.com/2011/07/invisable-pioneers.html" target="_blank">Samuel and Amanda Chambers</a> and all the other black Mormon pioneers might feel it. In that moment we wished we could read it to them, that we could tell them that the torches they had lit had not fallen, but that their light was moving forward.<br /><br />We thought of Cathy Stokes, <a href="http://blackmormonfilm.com/bios.html" target="_blank">Darius Gray</a>, Eugene Orr, <a href="http://blackmormonfilm.com/bios.html" target="_blank">Margret Young</a> and the many others we personally know that have been busy building the Kingdom and blazing trails so that our journeys might be a little smoother. We thought of Ruffin Bridgeforth, Helena Bridgeforth, his first wife who proceeded him in death and Betty Bridgeforth his second wife, known lovingly by many as the Father and Mothers of the <a href="http://www.ldsgenesisgroup.org/" target="_blank">LDS Genesis group</a>, and the legacy they left.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdpRzzGzKWJ2GxRn5d_z1UdvJK8dUmFEmREDWB0XcTMgn-yIPnNibgv29Y_WCcsEM0SWTTQn4LZ_faHmpji8uYjtVrklc6ZkWrY_CHjhfl1-ex300FxBeFmbnZm1GfW3rxChLvS8yqxsk/s1600/IMG_8620.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdpRzzGzKWJ2GxRn5d_z1UdvJK8dUmFEmREDWB0XcTMgn-yIPnNibgv29Y_WCcsEM0SWTTQn4LZ_faHmpji8uYjtVrklc6ZkWrY_CHjhfl1-ex300FxBeFmbnZm1GfW3rxChLvS8yqxsk/s320/IMG_8620.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>We thought of all of the leaders of our faith both past and present; Joseph Smith, Spencer W. Kimball, Hugh B. Brown, Gordon B. Hinckley, Thomas S. Monson, to name a few, of their prayers for the world, of their commitment to the Gospel and of their faith in the Lord.<br /><br />We like many have lives marred with trials and tribulations and often it can be hard to to look beyond the pain and find our purpose. However, in that moment during that conversation we realized that we had so much to be grateful for, so many to be grateful to, and that as we were busy pondering our problems, we were failing to count our many blessings. As the Spirit stirred our souls music filled our hearts.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQiVaftanpKz5NruLdQc3imIWXIm9yCe3PMVuk706aXKDptrHN33T909j3qtr0ksm-t3PZe0K6yl0tBP7lDceKPrRaHCs027wRqpAgbezESqhwXmSFtxvXJQn6FM5SH2zjsekyTotUXU/s1600/IMG_2828.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQiVaftanpKz5NruLdQc3imIWXIm9yCe3PMVuk706aXKDptrHN33T909j3qtr0ksm-t3PZe0K6yl0tBP7lDceKPrRaHCs027wRqpAgbezESqhwXmSFtxvXJQn6FM5SH2zjsekyTotUXU/s320/IMG_2828.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>The lyrical verses of "Lord, I Pray" are from a song called "I Pray", written by Mariah Carey and Kenneth Crouch. We Sistas wrote the rap verses and the music was produced by <a href="http://www.myspace.com/flexxrap" target="_blank">Flexx</a>. The song has been recorded for sometime now and we didn't know if, how or when to share it. A few days before June 8th, we were talking with each other and both felt impressed to share the song on June 8, 2012, the anniversary of the Priesthood restoration in the LDS church. In 48 hours with labor, love and help the video was created and shared.<br /><br />Yesterday on Sistas in Zion Radio! we were blessed to have Eugene Orr and Darius Gray on, (Listen <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/sistasinzion/2012/06/10/34-yr-anniversary-for-black-mormons-mormon-politics" target="_blank">here</a> if you missed it.) they shared some of their stories of being Black and Mormon before 1978. Brother Orr being called "boy" by his bishop and being told that he was a descendant of Cain by his Patriarch and the brothas literally having to unshackle the chains that were trying to keep them from Priesthood Session.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLfq3EfUlpJvyiUKkBVxRfpJx8ftHz73dpVvy_Fzx8FTaVywOzm1OBp9Qji8GbU-5cMFewl_HPXhyphenhyphenme4FU1bw4Il6if48WOPjOVP1L7ahf5esNNxtD4py-acjAb62VMIKehxm-1fCqW-0/s1600/IMG_1537.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLfq3EfUlpJvyiUKkBVxRfpJx8ftHz73dpVvy_Fzx8FTaVywOzm1OBp9Qji8GbU-5cMFewl_HPXhyphenhyphenme4FU1bw4Il6if48WOPjOVP1L7ahf5esNNxtD4py-acjAb62VMIKehxm-1fCqW-0/s320/IMG_1537.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>We are blessed to know these brothas personally and to be able to call on them any day or hour that our spirits need to be lifted. We know well their stories and our lives and even if you don't realize it, your lives have been blessed because of their Church service and duty God. With this legacy of pioneers, trail blazers, Church leaders, friends and family before us we feel like our offering is less than the widow's mite. Nevertheless an offering we make and the glory we give to God.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/K_X5vk5P2lc?rel=0" width="400"></iframe><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br />Your Sistas in the Gospel,</div><div style="text-align: left;">Sista Beehive & Sista Laurel<br /><br /><br /></div></div><span style="color: white;">Mormon, LDS, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Black Mormon, Black Mormon Pioneers, Mormon Curse of Cain, Black Mormons Cursed, Black Mormons and Priesthood, Racist Mormons</span>
