A Testimony

On the evening of January 26th 1922, I received a testimony in the form of a vision or spiritual manifestation during the closing of the Genealogical meeting, which was held at the house of Brother Alma Anderson, I felt a thrill pass through my body and for a short period of time I seemed not to be in the room.  I saw as in a vision my son (who is on a mission in the Tongan Islands) surrounded by a group of natives as though they were listening to him, there were two groups with quite a separation between them.  He was in the larger group.  The air was as the air would be with the ocean all around, sea color is the only way I can describe it.  I even felt the cool moist feeling on my forehead.  I saw the color of their skins, their hair, and their whole appearance, that of natives of those islands.  I feel this was given to me for a testimony that my son was doing his duty and the people were listening to what he had to say to them.  I wondered why I should have this experience at that meeting but can only say that we had the Spirit of the Lord with us at that meeting.  I feel thankful that I am worthy of such a testimony for such it was to me.
