Faithful Fortune Cookies

Fortunes are great, but these Chinese-hat-wearin' girlies are all about Faith!
(And some darn good Chinese food...)

















ALMA 32:21


And now as I said concerning faith—faith is not to have a perfect knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true.

WE RESOLUTE....
