Moving article

Your article on ministering to prisoners  has moved me to tears. My husband has been in prison for 7 years and still has 5 years to go. As a member with an incarcerated spouse, I can’t tell you how this touched me to know that we are not forgotten! It is a most difficult thing to keep a marriage alive during a lengthy incarceration but we are trying. I often feel very alone and like no one in my ward could possibly understand and do try to keep it very quiet. I just want to thank you for having this article. Maybe some members will have a less judgmental attitude towards people in my situation thanks to your sensitive approach of the subject. This was a true answer to many prayers. Thank you.

Thank you for the unique cover of the May 2010 Ensign. Each morning at breakfast, as I begin my day with the usual challenges and frustrations, it is a special pleasure to have President and Sister Monson giving me a personal greeting of love.

Although I like the new format, some of the layouts make it a little difficult to quickly follow a story. For example, on page 76 of the July 2010 there is information from two stories on the same page. As you finish the “Church Makes Mission Changes” first column your eye naturally goes to the top of the second column which belongs to a different story. A little more definition between stories would be helpful. Perhaps the old “continued on page 28” format would be helpful. Thank you so much for the new design, family home evening suggestions, and other helpful changes.
