Many comments afterwards were like:
"I've never had visitors like that in a class before, but you really felt as if they were really Esther and Daniel and felt their stories in a way never experienced before".
"You absolutely picked the right two people to do this, it was great".
"We should have visitors more often because that is what brings the scriptures to life".
and these are adults not youth speaking about how much they loved this experience! It was a powerful lesson and I am so grateful for the help of one of my Seminary students and my dear friend.
Daniel (Ben Hepworth) received his mission call Friday and I was the 3rd phone call (I love that I was on the list) he will be going April 6, 2011 to Portugal. He will be an excellent missionary.
Esther (Rebecca Albright) besides being beautiful inside and out, is the mother of this great missionary spoken of in the paragraph before and also already has a son out in the mission field who is doing an awesome job representing Jesus Christ. So she will have two sons serving at the same time and is the proud mother of two wonderful missionaries!
For me it was a great moment in time - a very moving and spiritual experience in Sunday School!

This is great, Lois. I wish I would've thought of this for our lesson with the youth yesterday. Any great ideas for next week? ;)
