Exmormon Foundation 2012 Conference
"DISSIDENTS IN DESERET"
"As the healing continued, I found a new person hiding beneath the splintered diamonds of my personality. Integrating the facets of these troubled pieces of myself came as I understood that I no longer had to walk the trail of tears from the past. I could at last be free to choose my path. It was all such a marvelous discovery-this freedom of mind, this tranquility, this peace." --Carol Rutz

Post-Mormon.OrgPresident's Message
It's hard to improve upon the President's Message written by our outgoing President, Chad Spjut. It's also hard to communicate to him our deepest thanks for all the work he has done for the Exmormon Foundation, and for the countless hours he has spent helping with local activities -- and counseling and communicating with so many people who are in pain over a decision to leave the church.

Why I Left
by Richard Packham
I left the Mormon church in 1958, when I was 25 years old.
Why, after all these years, would I still be concerned, then, about Mormonism? Why have I not yet come to terms with that distant part of my past and left it behind?
