Hello Forum Family,
you may call me Anita. My middle name.
I am excited to find this community. My dear hubby and I have talked about Polygamy for a long time. I myself come from polygamy...distantly. My Great Great Gramdma came from Sweden and was abandoned in NY by her first husband with two daughters. She had become a Mormon prior to her husband leaving. A very kind man in Utah, Phineas, offered to help her get to Utah. (He did this with many folks as he was a wealthy man) Her name was Johanna. She moved to Utah and started to pay Phineas back..and then fell in love. She became his fourth wife and they had over ten children together.
I am NOT a Mormon. Never have been. I am a Bible believing pentacostal woman. Married to the man I love for the last 26 years. We have discussed the idea of polygamy for many years..neither being against it because we cannot find anything in the Bible that forbids it.
But we never found anyone that either one of us would want to include.
Until now..... My husband has found a woman that he loves (agape).
A little background on my dear hubby. He was raised by a single mother..whose was abandoned by her husband for a younger woman.
My dear husband has a heart for single mothers...and he is a generous and kind man. Definitely the head of the house.
Recently through our ministry he met a lovely woman only a year younger than me with four children, two grown two still at home..that he has felt a draw too.
She is scared of polygamy. The idea of having to hide the relationship is actually the biggest issue.
She is NOTHING like me. We are totally different in body type and in personality.
It is very strange to be truly exploring this and I am overjoyed to find a forum to discuss openly the issues that come up.
Thank you for letting me join you forum family.
Bless you all and keep fighting the good fight,
In JESUS,
Anita
