There aren’t many members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where I live. I had to wait for my father’s permission to be baptized, but I really wanted to. Every day, I prayed that he would let me.

One day he called and told me that I could be baptized! I was very excited! I knew my choice was going to help me follow in Christ’s footsteps.

As a new member of the Church, I really wanted to serve because I constantly saw other people serving. I prayed a lot that God would give me someone to serve. One night in a dream, I saw a woman on the subway who needed help after falling off her chair. Later, while my dad and I traveled on the subway, I saw a woman fall off her chair. It was the same woman from my dream! It was a sacred experience for me to be able to help her.
