Avon Came Through!

* Originally posted on September 20, 2016

I had hoped to have a custom temple dress made before our mission came to an end. So, I went to the tiniest professional seamstress I've met, Avon. I believe she is even shorter than my Mom, whose height was 4'9". I was pleased with what she had made for me before, so I had every confidence that what she made would be just perfect for the temple.

She does excellent work, and I sensed that she thoroughly loves what she does.

Her years of experience came through.

I was pleased with what she created for me.

Our Testimonies

I have a testimony of Jesus Christ and know that He suffered and died for us, and He lives today. I also know that He and Heavenly Father appeared to Joseph Smith in a grove of trees near Palmyra, New York. And through Joseph Smith the Gospel of Jesus Christ was restored to the earth. I know that Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon, and have felt the Spirit bear witness to me of the truth of these things. I know that I am happier when I keep the commandments and strive to live the gospel. I want to share what I know to be true with others, so that they too, can receive the blessings that come from following our Savior, Jesus Christ, and return to live with our Heavenly Father.

I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior, and that He lives. I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is His church restored to the earth in these latter days. I know that Jesus Christ leads His church through a living prophet, Thomas S. Monson. I know the Bible and the Book of Mormon are true. We all have the right and privilege of knowing these truths for ourselves. Pray to our Heavenly Father with a sincere heart and real intent, and you will know through the influence of the Holy Ghost.

I bear testimony of these truths, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
