Letter: I hope those leaving the LDS faith return

(Scott Sommerdorf | The Salt Lake Tribune) Under her multi-colored umbrella, Savannah - a 13 old girl who became well known after a video of her speaking to her congregation about being gay and then having the microphone switched off by church leaders - listens as Mike Norton speaks about her during the 8th annual mass resignation in City Creek Park, Sunday, November 5, 2017.

I find it ironic that The Tribune reports on the “dozens” who are rallying against Mormon doctrines at a mass resignation event, but ignores the hundreds of thousands of converts who quietly and faithfully join the LDS Church every year.

As an active LDS person, I do not understand everything about the doctrines and policies of the church, especially the LGBTQ issues. Nevertheless, I support my general and local leaders and proudly keep my name on the rolls of the LDS Church.

I am sorry to see any of my fellow brothers and sisters resign their membership for any reason. I hope they return.
