So we baptized 4 people last week. It was great. It was a family of 6, the mother was already a member, but she grew up in Raivavae, and she became inactive when she was really young. Well, she got married, and then when her husband was extremely sick, and actually, due to a disease, was in a coma and she thought he was going to die. In fact, the doctors took him off life support and said that it was finished, and that he would pass on soon enough.That's when he had a vision of a man and a woman who were pushing a cart of something. they asked him to follow them down a tunnel. there were two tunnels, and the one where they were going down was black and dark. He decided to go down the other, which had a tiny light at the end of it.
He explained that as he got closer to it, it came closer to him, until it got big enough to completely engulf him and surround him. That's when he saw a room that was perfectly white with tons of throne-like chairs, which, as he understood, were for angels. They were all empty, and as he looked across them, he saw a man standing in front of them.
He told him to come over and witness the marks in his hands, and then he told him that there was no place for him there, not yet anyways. Then he asked him if he was ready to come back down. He said yes.
And then he woke up from the coma and all the doctors could not explain it. He said that he didn't even believe that he was about to die, but the only think he has as proof was the word of his wife and the doctors.
But after he recounted his experience to her, she remembered the Church, and sought out the members. Then we came in, taught their family, and baptized their 3 daughters, the fourth being too young, and the father.
So yeah, that was a pretty cool story. things like that don't happen very often.
