Mary's Talk

Yesterday at church, Mary gave a talk to all the Primary kids. It was not her first talk, but I'd thought I'd share what she said. She worked hard on it all last week and did all the typing herself. I helped to keep her focused on her topic, but overall the words are hers:

* * *

My talk is about testimonies. In the Book of Mormon a guy named Amulek is a good example of someone who shared his testimony.

When the prophet Alma went to Ammonihah, the people did not like him. Then Alma left. An angel came to him and said, “I am sent to command thee that thou return to the city of Ammonihah and preach again unto the people of the city.”

The angel went to Amulek and said, “Amulek, return to thine own house, for thou shalt feed a prophet of the Lord,” So Amulek took Alma to his house and fed him. Alma taught Amulek about Jesus Christ and blessed his family.

Alma and Amulek went to preach the gospel in the city. They met Zeezrom who did not believe in Jesus Christ. He tried to confuse and trick Amulek into saying that there is no Christ.

Even though Amulek was a new member of the Church, he still knew that Jesus Christ was real. He gave his testimony about Jesus. Because of his testimony, Zeezrom believed in Jesus Christ.

I know that the Church is true, and I believe in Jesus Christ. If we share our testimonies with others they will believe in Jesus too. Amen.
