Savior of the World


Kyle and I had the opportunity to participate in our Stake's production of "Savior of the World" This is a musical production that depicts the Savior's birth and resurrection. It was a very special experience for me. Practices began the end of July, and we just finished our last performance tonight. I met many new friends that have helped strengthen me, and I have been amazed at the talents and testimonies they have shared.

My testimony of the Savior has grown; as I have learned more about the events leading up to his birth, and those surrounding his resurrection. I know that Jesus Christ is the savior of the world. He lives! The final song in the production always made me feel of the love my Heavenly Father and Savior have. The words are from the hymn "Jesus Once of Humble Birth" They read,

Jesus, once of humble birth,
Now in glory comes to earth.
Once he suffered grief and pain;
Now he comes on earth to reign.


Our Heavenly Father and His son Jesus Christ loves us. Their plan is to help us find joy in this life and in the life to come. I know this to be true.



We both were angels at different point in the show. Kyle also played the apostle Matthew and I was Hannah a woman who saw the risen lord.
