In 1988, an earthquake devastated an Armenian city. After the shaking stopped, a father ran breathlessly to his son’s school, now a pile of rubble, and began to frantically yet carefully remove the broken pieces of the building. When others told him to stop because there were no signs of life and it was hopeless, he replied that he had made a promise that he would always be there for his son. He removed rubble for 38 hours. Other parents cried and wailed, but did not help. Then the voice came. “Dad! It's me Armand! I told the other kids not to worry. I told them that if you were alive, you'd save me and they'd be saved!” The father helped his son and 13 other boys and girls from the debris (President James E. Faust, “Them That Honour Me I Will Honour,” April 2001 general conference).
