"Halfway Home": Maureen McGovern Sings The Theme Song From The 1981 Film...

This song touches my very core. I heard it in high school and never got to see the movie but I taught a short lesson based on it. It has special meaning to me as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints because we believe that this earth life is our second estate. We believe that we already proved ourselves in heaven before we got the opportunity to come to this earth and prove ourselves again to our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ our brother and Savior. When I get discouraged this song lifts me when I realize, I'm halfway home.

Final Board Member- President Thomas S. Monson

I thought long and hard before deciding on this final board member. I thought it would be nice to have another woman, someone like Oprah or Mrs. Fields. I thought of all the people in the world and how many special gifts each of us brings to the plate. I went back and forth many times, adding and crossing off until I reached my final selection, President Thomas S. Monson. President Monson was chosen for many reasons. I read his biography not long ago and was impressed with his leadership and charity towards his fellowman. President Monson already is involved with leading a worldwide church with millions of members. In real life he would in no way be able to serve on my board but since this is an imaginary assignment, I don't think he'd refuse. He tells the best heartwarming stories, has an excellent memory and was an expert in the field of publishing before serving in his current position of prophet, seer and revelator and President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
