I feel like we ought to have Sister Leona bear her testimony. I pray the Lord will bless me with his spirit. I and I have since stood before you, and I'm very grateful for the blessings of the Lord to me, for he has indeed blessed me. First of all, I want to say that I know this is the priesthood of God, and I have a testimony of it. The Lord has answered my prayers in many ways. I have fasted and prayed.

And he has answered me. And I pray that he will continue to bless me and guide me. I pray that he will guide us all through all the walks of life. Been away for quite a long time. It's wonderful to be in your midst again. I'm so grateful for the guidance of the priesthood. And I know that they have been inspired. I'm grateful for the privilege that the Lord has given me to be amongst you people.

Though far away, at times I've felt the nearness, and I've felt the answers of prayers in my behalf. I'm grateful for the life of my dear brother, and my uncle, and all these dear brethren, because they have been inspiration to me. I'm grateful for my parents, who instilled in me a desire for the gospel and the priesthood. And my great desire is that I might be able to dwell with them.

when I leave this spirit that I might be counted worthy to be among them. That I might do my part while here keeping the commandments and standing faithful and true. May the Lord bless us all that we may ever be true to him and to the priesthood and to his gospel. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
