Another Voice of Warning: Member Comments

“I really appreciate the site to give me information and knowledge that I would not have the opportunity to get otherwise. I do not agree with everything written here but I enjoy seeing what others think. This site also helps me become more spiritual/keeps me grounded esp since my husband is not very interested in things of spiritual nature. I appreciate this site and you, Christopher, for all the extra work you do to improve the site, get us information, and opportunities to met other people with like minded ideas. ”

“This site is a big part of our preparedness life! The feast that it offers in information is astounding. I have learned so very much over the years from all of you, and will continue to do so. Many of my family and ward members have learned much from my Preparedness Class I teach in the ward as a direct result of what I have learned here. Thank you so much for keeping this site a vital and growing one. We appreciate all of you and the time and effort you put into keeping the spirit strong and guiding us along. ”

“I am thankful for all that people share on this site. I have been fed well. I can see how sometimes topics are brought up that I haven't thought about. Then it opens my eyes to another area I need to work on. It is like that onion analogy. I like discovering all the wonderful layers there is to being prepared. I hope to be an asset to the church and not a burden. Thanks to all for all the wonderful sharing and eye opening that occurs. May we all have eyes to see! ”

“So many of us would have no other support of our efforts if it weren't for AVOW. The membership fee is very small in comparison to the wide range of topics covered and the "shepherding" done by those in the administration of this website. I have never had any desire to converse online with anyone until I discovered this place. Thank you for your efforts and care! ”

“I have had a strong feeling the last month or two that I need to complete my storage and preparations. I just discovered this site a couple of weeks ago and it has been amazingly helpful”

“ I love AVOW because I am among kindred spirits here. I have always been a preparedness person and could never understand why I worked so hard, spent so much time and money, doing it when many around me weren't doing even a hundredth of what I was doing. And yet I knew I was SUPPOSED to do it. When I found AVOW, it was like coming home. I no longer felt strange or weird.”

“This site has been a wonderful blessing in my life and in the lives of those that I talk with. It is such a wonderful resource of information and testimonies. ... I have never felt so united to like minded people before. Many years in my preparations and study were spent feeling very alone. This site has provided me a place to continue learning, as well as place to share. ”

“I signed up for a 3 month trail membership @ Christmas to test the waters, kick the tires and now almost 3 months later I wonder what I would do without the site. I have learned a ton and been motivated by the posting members here to get on the ball and get prepared. The treasure trove of information is second to non. Thanks to all who take time to moderate, post and share info, thoughts and keep this site top notch! ”

“I personally enjoy coming here because I do not have the time or ability to read and be aware of all that is going on around us. This is a great resource, from those who share the same gospel background to report and share with the rest of us. It fuels my thinking and helps to bring into focus or remembrance the teachings of the prophets in the scriptures or in our day. ”

“This site has given me insight and guidance, saving me hundreds of dollars as I continue to prepare. In the old days they would have written letters to share information. We have the great gift of the internet. Just as in Genealogy field, it is here providing us with the amazing ability to share information in an quick and efficient manner. Hallelujah! ”

“All the time that I spend on here has been quite a lot recently. Could I be doing something else more productive? Probobly not. I sometimes feel I am here too much. But the friends I've met and dealt with, the immense amount of knowledge I've gained, the ability to help me focus on what our family really needs has been so wonderful. ”

“The exchange of data that has been achieved via this forum... the fellowshipping has been invaluable. We are people who are often, in our individual wards, voices in the wilderness facing hostility, laughter and mockery as we try to spread the word that holding on to the iron rod includes following the prophet's loving commands to prepare . ”
