Jules, I can't wait until they come here and share their experiences. They truly are miraculous. I just can't believe how blessed I am to have been able to commune with the Savior with these people. I felt like I was actually in Zion.

Bishop gave me some inspired advice in a pm, and I thought I'd comment here. He shared with me how the LDS church has a mission, specifically to reach out to those in a telestial state and bring them to a terrestrial level, and then point the way to the celestial. Those who are still at the beginning stages of spiritual growth can easily react negatively to greater light and knowledge if they are not prepared correctly to receive it.

I have decided to do my best to keep somewhat of a low profile, first because I know my wife will appreciate it, but also I have been afforded an opportunity to quietly share a testimony that may bring many to come to know their Savior. I truly stand amazed at the blessings I have been given. Among the greatest, is to be able to share my testimony in a way that can help lead others to come to a perfect knowledge of their Savior. I had several opportunities today to do so. I love the look in people's eyes when they realize how personal the atonement is for them, how personal the Savior's love is for them. How freely we are all able to receive of His love. My heart does not cease to sing His praises!
