French Guyana

French Guyana is located about 3,000 miles southest of the United States. French Guyana is a possession of France. About 90% of the people living in French Guyana are Negros or Creoles. French Guyana is mostly in the rainforest of South America. Most of its inhabitants live on the coast rather than in the rainforest. French Guyana sits just over the equator in South America. French Guyana has more than 20 islands. French Guyana has lots of small capes and peninsulas along its coast.

French Guyana was the place the first European sailors landed. Devils island is a small island that for many years was a brutal prison camp. It was closed in 1945.

French Guyana is full of economy that is payed for by the government. Jobs include gold mining, prosing agricultural, forest products, shrimp, farming. Farmers don't raise enough food to supply the country, so most food is being imported.

French Guyana has about 130 inches of rain per year. The average temperatures about 80 degrees year round.

Mormon Doctrine News: As Church Grows, What Is Taught Remains The Same

What?

You think its the leaders choice that keep teaching us the same thing. Its because we as a church as a whole haven't moved forward! Most of the people I see in the church are fine with the same old thing and don't want any change. The only way to gain more knowledge is to grow spiritually.

Mormon talked about how he was going to write down all that Jesus taught the Nephites. But he was told not to, to try our faith.

Pres Benson brings up the condemnation the church is under because we don't use the book of mormon as should (I would add all scripture).

In the end, the gospel is the same, its same principles that were taught to Adam. There is no need to change them, or change how we teach them. The only thing that needs to change is how we live them. [See Similar Topics]
