South Africa Tour Lesson

Today Kevin and I traveled south to Provo to listen to Brad and his roommate, Spencer Park, teach a joint Priesthood/Relief Society lesson.  They were asked to share their experiences on their recent tour to South Africa, Swaziland, and Botswana.  They took turns sharing experiences, photos, and video clips from their tour.  They stressed that Young Ambassadors is not so much about the performing of the show but rather has a much greater mission:  service, example, and testimony.

They bore powerful testimony of how the Lord puts people in the right place at the right time if we but submit to his will and get out of our comfort zones to be instruments in his hands.  At the conclusion of their remarks, Spencer played and Brad sang the solo that he sang in the YA fireside.  It is a powerful testimony of the power of  the Atonement to heal us.  It was a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
