The Power of Example


Ten years ago this month I was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter Day Saints. A day I had anticipated for a long time. My decision to be baptized was the greatest I have ever made. It has brought into my life the greatest joy imaginable. I was first introduced to the Church in Frankfurt, Germany. Many friends where such great examples to me. The testimonies and conviction of the gospel which you dear friends had is what drew me to a desire to know for myself the truthfulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Since that wonderful day back ten years ago, I have been married and sealed to a wonderful worthy priesthood holder, in the Frankfurt temple, the country where I was first introduced to the Church. I have been blessed with three beautiful children. Thank you to each of you who has set an amazing example to me and gave me a foundation on which plant a seed of faith and has sprouted into a glorious tree. Generations to come will thank each of you for standing strong and immovable in your conviction and example to live the gospel and be a light to others.
