Testimonies of the Prophet in Africa

My Impressions and Testimony about the Prophet’s Visit to Africa

“What I felt as President Russell M. Nelson entered the auditorium is unexplainable.”

My branch president always advised us to pray for the Holy Spirit such that when the prophet came, we would have spiritual ears to hear and that we would act upon his words. I followed his advice and I prayed about this. When the prophet came, I surely heard the voice of God. My soul and my testimony were strengthened. Today I can strongly say that I know that the prophets we have in this Church are called of God. What I felt as President Russell M. Nelson entered the auditorium is unexplainable. Not only was I impressed by the authority of God that was clothing him, but I was also mesmerized and eventually became speechless. That man is truly a servant of our Heavenly Father.

I am also grateful for Elder Holland who had accompanied our dear prophet. He was like John the Baptist when he spoke, paving the way for our prophet to speak to every heart, mind, and soul. The prophet encouraged people to become educated and that parents should strive to help their children attain a better education. He summed up by giving the people a blessing of which I was very delighted to receive.

I know that the Book of Mormon is indeed another testament of Jesus Christ. I know that this Church is true and indeed Joseph Smith was a true prophet of the Restoration.
