He was my mom’s first prophet, too. ❤ She was baptized as a young mother in November 1964, whose partial motivation was to find a church to take her little ones to so that they would learn of Jesus.
My dad served a mission from 1950-1952 in the whole southern California region and into Calexico and Arizona borders. I often wonder if there are any descendants or anyone still alive whom he baptized? I have photos of him performing baptisms in swimming pools.
“Yes, Jesus is the Prince of Peace but he will not bring peace to the world in any magic way. He will grant it only according to the law upon which it, like all blessings, is predicated. Love begets love. Kindness invites more kindness and kindness and love beget peace. When mankind learns this simple lesson peace will come to them as a natural result.”
