You have put God first in your life By doing so all things are added unto you because our loving God never never fails

I am a member of a church that is different from yours. I loved your explanations and and the joy you showed when talking about your church. You can tell you and your family live by God’s teachings. You inspire me to be better!

[@cynthiaoconnor7185]

I was raised Southern Baptist, from being in utero on. We went to church on Sunday morning, Sunday evening and Wednesday evening. Our church family was great and we had a wonderful pastor. For 24 years I attended Baptist churches, throughout college, marriage and divorce. As divorce was frowned upon at that time (probably still is), I didn't attend a Baptist church afterwards. I must note that my lifelong church never made me feel bad, just my own upbringing. Because I wanted my daughter to have a religious background, I attended a Methodist church for her. Now, 40+ years after my divorce, I have no church but still have a strong belief in God and He is who I talk to quite a bit. Your family's religious beliefs will sustain and help you throughout your lives and I hope other people in other religions are made better by your videos. I know I am. Thank you for sharing.

[@deborahivy9895]

What a perfect time to share your testimony about your belief in Jesus Christ. No matter what your faith, Jesus was the perfect gift of love. Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.

[@angko-pe]

Thank you for your beautiful testimony. I didn't grow up in a Christian family, although the church was always a part of my life through after school club, choir etc. The year I turned 18 I got saved and I have never looked back or regretted it, not even when my family nearly disowned me because of my newfound faith. Its been 20 years now and I am still in awe of how glorious God is.

[@cathyshuler8149]

Thank you for sharing information about your faith and how your family practices it. It's so wonderful that you and Mark set an example for your children by the way you go about your lives, teaching them responsibility and providing such wholesome and fun activities. Your children are so well mannered and your family is so close. It's always great to watch your videos!

[@marcellahicks3984]

Sundays with the Hamm Family was a Blast. I think the saying goes "A Family that prays together stays together". It was so wonderful watching your Whole Family Praise and Love God. It does not take much to see the Holy Spirit working through each of you. Mark and Lauren all the kids in your Ward are going to thrive with your direction. Thanks for letting us be Part of Sunday Family time. So much fun

[@paulinemaclellan8204]

What a lovely Sunday, thank you for sharing. It's so interesting to hear about other faiths. I was raised by agnostic parents and found my way to God in my teens and was baptised into the Church of Scotland when I was 15. My family are good people but are not religious. I've always found my faith to be a great comfort, especially when my husband died. I miss him so terribly but know we will meet again. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas, take care. 🌟🎄🎁🎄🌟

[@veryfungamesawesome]

One of my high school best friends is a member of the LDS church. I honestly had never heard of the Faith until I met her in 9th grade. Her family is very nice and happy and I’ve noticed a lot of people are who are members of the church. Growing up as a nondenominational Christian it is very different from what I’m used to. Glad you keep the sabbath day holy and just relax before the next week ahead.

[@crystalmurell8650]

Had to pause video and comment. watching this on Christmas Eve has given me hope for humanity. You guys give me a feeling of safety..it's quite comforting ❤️

Growing up we went to catholic church. In 8th grade my dad gave his blessing for me to attend the baptist church. We teens got a activity night every sunday, it was very important to have friends that were also christians. Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. Family is important and including your church beliefs is amazing.

[@lyn3078]

thankyou for sharing your day - here in Australia it is currently 33 celsius, which is about 92 F. I would love a snowy Christmas

[@laurieboss1897]

Thank you for sharing. I enjoy learning about other faiths and how they live their everyday lives. I have worked for the Episcopal Church for 11 years. I think if people stopped for a moment, they would see that we all have a lot in common regardless of where we live, what our nationality is, or what religion we choose. We all need to live everyday to be kind and respectful of each other regardless of our differences. I have watched a lot of your videos and you always are cheerful and have a kind spirit. I really enjoyed the mall shopping trip.

[@ZXX984]

I really liked that you went into detail to explain the church of Latter Day Saints. I’ve heard of it advertised. Even though I’m Catholic, I always like to see how others worship. Our fireworks have to wait. I’m in the hospital following yesterday’s operation. Anyway, Happy New Year to all of you, including Luna. Liked her picture on the card. Two of my cats look for her when she meows.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I hope you are healing up. We love our friends of different faiths and I love seeing how other people worship as well. Heal up! Much prayers of healing to you!

[@karenleemallonee684]

This is a special vlog! Growing up the only thing I knew about Mormons was they couldn't drink coffee & sodas, and that they all knew the Osmonds. Silly, I know, but it's the truth. Merry Christmas, Hamm Family, thank you for being just who God made you to be & do His will & share Him with the world!!! The dinner looked amazing, Mark!!!😋 Happy Birthday, Bennett!!! 🥳 Merry Christmas!!! 🎄

[@emmib1388]

You seriously thought that everyone knew the Osmonds? That is funny ! LOL I knew the Osmonds were Mormon (now preferred to be called Later Day Saints) but never thought everyone knew them...well, maybe knew them like you would know any other famous person, but not personally :-)

[@emmib1388]

but now thinking about it -- I guess it is like when you tell someone that you are from a particular town or city and they respond 'oh, do you know john smith' as if everyone knows each other! LOL

[@karenleemallonee684]

@@emmib1388 I should have said how old I was, I was maybe 3rd or 4th grade, 7or 8 years old. This was back in the early 1970's, definitely grew to know & understand difference.

@@karenleemallonee684 thanks for clarifying -- I figured it was in the 70s but thought you might be a little older at the time ! But it is funny when adults hear you are from a particular place and they think you know everyone! Children, I can understand thinking this way! Merry Christmas!

[@emmib1388]

People should be allowed to run their businesses as they see fit -- but we can decide what we choose to do on a Sunday ....and some of us choose not to shop and continue to practice family. It is sad for those who remember it, and want it back but don't take the time to start. It can even be done in baby steps.

Why not create a Sunday get together with friends and neighbors? If you can host, maybe someone else can, or you can do it on a rotation. Or you can host and assign food for everyone to bring.
