From heartbreak to gratitude, feelings run the gamut among Latter-day Saint women in Idaho and Nevada in the wake of the church’s statements on abortion ballot measures.

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are still highly religious and conservative, but signs point to demographic and social change.

I’m mindful that I am now the second male from BCC to post about this topic in as many days. I realize that (no matter the situation) I will never have to personally make a choice about whether or not I will have an abortion. And, so, I come to this issue as an outsider. And frankly, I am quite aware of my outsider status; and it is my outsider status that informs my reaction to the letter. But I’ll get to that in a moment. First.

After some searching, I found what purported to be the letter, though I was skeptical (it didn't look or feel accurate). But now the Deseret News and the East Idaho News have reported on it, pulling out phrases that are in the document I found through my searches, so it looks like the Area Presidency has directed this letter to be read.
