Jayla discovered The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints online while researching different religions. Even though her Mom was against it, Jayla trusted the warm and good feelings she had while looking into the Church and decided to meet with the Sister missionaries. She overcame challenges and answered questions she had about Church history in order to be baptized, and her relationship with Jesus Christ has completely transformed!
