Franklin van Callias, October 14, 2011
Franklin met the sisters while he was outside painting a building for work. The first Sunday he came to church was the same day the Dordrecht branch became a ward. He felt the Spirit very strongly that day, especially when Bishop Roberts was released as branch president, through the priesthood, and then ordained as a bishop. Franklin told the sisters that he "felt the fire burn" in his heart. Their first lesson with him was later that same week. It was obvious from the very beginning that he was a special person! Over the next 6 weeks, Franklin learned everything he needed to in order to be baptized. His testimony of Jesus Christ, which was already strong in the beginning, was further strengthened by the testimony he gained of the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. For him, the baptism was a really important step in his life. After taking that step, he felt clean and found the peace he was looking for in his life.
Love, Sister Moses and Sister Rich
