Mission Home Fireside 10-25-09- VICTOR HARDING

We had the most wonderful Mission Home Fireside on the 25th of October. We invited Victor Harding to come and tell his story. This gentleman comes from Sierre Leon, Africa. He was a minister there for 25 years. He came to America with his church and was a paid minister here.
Elders Withers and Baldwin were tracting and knocked on his door. He let them in and listened to them. He felt the spirit right from the first and recognized the truth he was hearing. He said he needed to tell his congregation that he was not coming back because he was joining the Mormon Church. They tried to convince him otherwise. He said he only feels the spirit of the Holy Ghost when he is hearing about this church with the missionaries, reading the Book of Mormon, or attending our church. He is going to be a great leader. What an incredible man.
