Homeless Drug Addict Sees LDS Easter Video, Converts and Finds New Life in Message

For their 2017 Easter initiative, the Church is highlighting eight remarkable stories that illustrate principles of peace. Among them is a story of redemption and repentance—the story of Melody Callier. "Who am I to be the face of the church? I'm a new convert, a single mom, a black girl from the 'hood with 15 tattoos, ex-homeless, ex-drug addict," Callier said. "I felt extremely unworthy, but I hope to help one person, maybe plant a seed of hope. If I can come back and find joy, there is still a chance for others."

Elder and Sister Holland Identify the Greatest Revelation God Has Ever Given + the Most Important Figure in the Book of Mormon

Sister Holland shared her personal testimony of the Book of Mormon at the 2018 Mission Leadership Seminar. “Recently during a near-fatal illness I wanted Jeff and his priesthood to be with me constantly,” she said. “Because he couldn’t always be at my side, I wanted the next best thing. I wanted my Book of Mormon in my hands, holding it, and when I slept I wanted it under my pillow. With doctors telling us that I wasn’t going to make it. . . , I knew if I did live, it would be because of the blessings of the true gospel that the Book of Mormon teaches.” During the same seminar, Elder Holland also shared the greatest revelation God has ever given as well as the most important figure in the Book of Mormon.

Mormon pioneer in Argentina sacrifices soccer for service

Next to testimony, there is perhaps no more frequently recurring theme in the stories of converts to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints than that of sacrifice—especially when those converts are pioneers in their homelands or families. Argentinean pioneer Samuel Borén is no exception. When Borén was baptized just outside Buenos Aires in 1936, he became one of the earliest members of the Church in Argentina. Just 20 years old, Borén was a skilled soccer player with a rising career, playing on the second division team of one of the best soccer clubs in Buenos Aires.
