Hi, I’m Camilla. I am a stay at home mother of four who grew up in the Mormon faith. I enjoy reading, drawing, painting, and carving and polishing rocks.

I previously didn’t believe in the Ordain Women movement, but when I was called to my ward’s Relief Society and had to get all my suggestions for activities and the teachers of those activities approved by my bishop I became very frustrated.

I decided rather than being angry and bitter about my frustrations I would research what Joseph Smith taught and established when the Relief Society was founded. As it turns out, there is evidence that Joseph Smith ordained women at the founding of the Relief Society. I believe women never should have lost the power to which he ordained them. I believe women should be ordained.
