pesher Posted July 18, 2009 Report Posted July 18, 2009 Working in the Pacific Island countries many years ago I was told a true story about a Morman missionary team who went onto this isolated island country and were greeted with islanders wanting to be baptised. The Morman Missionaries ask how they had heard about baptisim and Jesus Christ. Ths islanders told them 3 visitors appeared to them the last few weeks. They had healed their children and told them about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They told the islanders to expect soon 2 North Americian young men in white shirts and ties would arrive and baptism them. pesher Quote

deseretgov Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 It would be interesting to see a bit more evidence for this. There's lots of third/fourth/fifth hand stories going around out there. ESPECIALY from missionaries. Quote
bytebear Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Not really related, but I would recommend watching the movie, The Other Side of Heaven. It's a far more realistic depiction of missionary work in the Pacific islands. Quote
