A child of the Heavenly Father
11/03/1962 Reborn 09/02/2017
Before 1970, I had been sneaking into churches in our neighborhoods. They were non-Catholic churches, so my mother would not have approved, but the music would draw me in. I appreciate the music, but the sermons did not always resonate with me. Therefore, in 1970, I had a question that no one could adequately explain to me. I deeply contemplated the question. I sincerely posed the fundamental question to the Father. "Who is Jesus Christ?" After some time, I got the answer from the Heavenly Father; it made sense. Therefore, for the next 47 years, I attended every denominational church there is (except the Church of Jesus Christ, because I was told they were not a church). Over the years, I was baptized eight times in various trustworthy churches and made friends; however, whenever I asked my question to a preacher, minister, pastor, or any other religious leader, I would leave immediately because they could not provide the answer that I knew the Father had already given me. In 2017, I developed a plan after discovering that my sister-in-law was attending that non-Christian organization that identified as Mormon. I decided to invite my sister-in-law and her husband over for a July 4th weekend celebration, but my true intention was to convert them, teach them the gospel, and show them that being a Christian was the only way. I was the one in for a surprise. The Heavenly Father does have plans of his own. They arrived on the 1st of July. I asked my brother-in-law a question, someone who I thought could never answer it exactly as the Heavenly Father had so many years ago. He did exactly that! In summary, he successfully answered my question. By July 4th, 2017, my husband and I had cleaned out the wax in our ears and finally heard the truth. We baptized and began attending the Heavenly Father's restored church on September 2nd, 2017. There has not been a time we have regretted doing so.
As a Holy Roller Latter-Day- Saint daughter, I share this in the name of Jesus Christ

Amber, Thank you. I must admit that a significant portion of my testimony has come from the Father, who used my sister-in-law and her husband to convey the truth to me. I'm excited to read yours. I'm confident that many people who visit the website will find inspiration. Because I cannot afford to include all the features on this site right now, your voice testimony cannot be shared at this time. I will convert it to writing and have it posted soon.

Rhonda Wiscombe,
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful testimony. ❤️ What you describe about ministering really captures the heart of Christ's love -- How it begins with small, sincere gestures and grows into lasting trust and friendship. I love how you've seen ministry bless not only those you serve but your own life as well.
Your examples are so powerful—reminding us that even simple acts of reaching out, being present, and showing care can ripple into profound spiritual blessings. It's inspiring to hear how friendships built through ministering have helped bring others back, provided opportunities for children to be baptized, and brought comfort in times of loss.
Your testimony is a wonderful reminder that ministering is both service and relationship—an extension of Christ's love. Thank you for sharing this, and I look forward to hearing more of your experiences. 🙏✨️

Rhonda, Thank you for sharing your testimony; it is so heartwarming. We appreciate your wonderful advice on being a true sister, not just a ministering sister.

The Godhead: How I Came to Know the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost Are One in Purpose, Not in Person
I was raised in a home that loved the Bible and believed deeply in the Trinity. Most of my family still does. My parents were raised Baptist, but over time their paths diverged. My father explored Charismatic teachings that delved into mysticism and gnostic ideas, and in recent years he has drawn further into the Hebrew roots movement. My mother converted to Catholicism several years ago. In our home there were many voices claiming revelation and truth, which left me feeling uncertain and searching for clarity about who God really is and how His voice could be heard.
First off before I add my testimony:
Wow… thank you for sharing your journey so openly. ❤️ Your story is such a powerful testimony of the Lord’s timing and His tender mercies. I love how you followed the promptings of the Father, even through so many years of searching, and how He gently guided you to the truth in His own way.
It’s inspiring to see how He used your sister-in-law and brother-in-law as instruments to answer the question you had carried for so long. Your faith, patience, and willingness to seek earnestly reflect a heart truly seeking Christ.
Thank you for sharing this reminder that Heavenly Father’s plan is perfect, even when it unfolds in ways we could never have imagined. Your story will bless many who are still searching. 🙏✨
My testimony involves ministering. Ministering begins with receiving a thought to reach out to either the sisters or brothers a church leader has given you to show real intent to be present in their lives, or even a friend or family member. As you talk to them, text them, call them, take them out for a soda or ice cream, you begin a friendship and build trust. That friendship grows and they know they can rely on you for any type of assistance. Over 20 years ago, I had a sister who was my ministering sister for 12 years! I learned tontrust her and rely on her. She was there for me as a struggling newlywed or in times of health struggles. She was there also for some really happy times - a temple marriage, job promotions, and her mission call. When my mother died, my ministering sister called or texted me several times to see if I was doing ok. She knew I was speaking at my mom's funeral and checked on me afterwards. She knew I was in Nebraska but it didnt stop her.
As I minister, I not only build their trust in me but also I gain a friend. One friend who hasn't been active for years, accepted a calling to serve with me. Another friend who also had not been active for years, provided the opportunity for her 2 young children to be baptized. I have another friend who although may never come back to church, looks forward to my visit.
I'll share other testimonies later. Thank you for sharing this blog site.
In the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. AMEN
