🌊 I Got BAPTIZED • My Bizarre LDS Conversion Story

EDIT 4/25: The OUTPOURING of genuine, heartfelt support has been incredibly humbling. I was told after the baptism that LDS provides an instant family, and that turned out to be so true on a much wider, global scale. Thank you everyone. --- Very raw in this one. Let me know your thoughts in this new chapter, would be glad to hear. One thing I didn't address is the future of the channel. I do hope to visit various churches in the future while diving into LDS, though will need to be very strategic and wouldn't plan to be 52 consecutive weeks. Travel, expenses, and time would be too much. I'll address further in the future.

I started reading the Book of Mormon with a glass of wine in one hand, and a cigarette in the other. I went from atheist to Baptism in 3 weeks. That was 48 years ago and I never regretted it for one second. It was the best decision of my life. I'll be praying for you. Stay strong and keep your covenants. Satan will never give up on you - but neither will our Savior!

I have been investigating LDS FOR 4 months. My Baptism is April 27! Found what was missing in my Faith Journey!

I just got Baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints 4/20/2024 on my 36th birthday. My physical birth and my spiritual rebirth are now the same day 36 years apart. I also went to the Manti open house it was absolutely gorgeous.

I joined the church at 25 years old. I am 38 now. I have a wife and 2 kids sealed in the temple! It all happened because I was searching like you! I went to different churches (never the LDS church) and synagogues. My mother who passed away came to me in a dream and said, Follow them and 2 missionaries were in my dream. Later in the week, I had a flat tire while hitting a pothole a block from the tire shop. As I pulled into a used tire shop, I saw the 2 missionaries. I said teach me what you have because my mother told me to follow it. I was baptized 3 weeks later!

I was a pretty cold hearted might is right atheist but ended up joining the LDS, I was baptized on Good Friday, 2024.

I am shocked and delighted at how positive this comments section is.

I loved how Pres Hinkley asked good people to come and see. “Bring what you have and let us add to it.”

I am a 65-year-old man and have been in and out of churches my whole life and in 2017 I was baptized in the church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints, and it has changed my life spiritually physically, and mentally, I’ve never felt better and blessed so much in my life.🙏🙏🏽Thank you so much for your conversion story. I’m so glad I took the time to listen to it.

Because of you I am also investigating the LDS faith. I went to the Manti Temple open house and it was amazing. Now I am scheduled to see the Taylorsville AND Layton temples next week. I am going to talk to the missionary girls

In 1971, my now wife and I hitchhiked all over the US searching out the truth. We prayed together to be led to it. We read the Bible together and visited several churches. We found what you found—The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. We were baptized and then married two days later—52 years ago. We love our life. We pray you’ll find the same peace in Christ that we enjoy.

I’ve been investigating the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints for almost three months now, and I just started meeting with some wonderful missionaries. Some of my family doesn’t like the church, some of my Protestant friends have been urging me not to become a members (there’s nothing wrong with being Protestant- their concern comes from a place of love), and of course I’ve seen people online who don’t like the church, but I can confidently say I am 100% committed. I intend to be baptized myself as soon as possible. Thank you so much for sharing your story, David. It’s so inspiring to watch your journey, and I’m so grateful that you’ve allowed us all to be part of it.

I am in the bathroom when my husband shouted "The 52 churches in 52 days got baptized". Then we watched your conversion story together. We are a young couple and needed your testimony. Thank you so much. ❤

God bless you my friend. My wife was Catholic when she investigated the church. I was already a member and never pushed her into joining. After talking to the missionaries, she was reading the book of Mormon, and had prayed several times to know if it was true, and nothing had come, she asked me why I said just keep reading and keep praying, the Lord wants to know if you are your sincere, one night I woke up and she wasn’t in bed. It was about 4 AM. I walked out into the living room and she had the Book of Mormon in her hands with tears streaming down her face, I said, honey, are you OK? She looked up to me and said “I got it, I got it” she said as she was reading the end of second Nephi, The spirit came over her so strong, and she was filled with such great peace, that she could not withhold her tears, she said “I now know for myself that the Book of Mormon is true“ She has been a solid member of the church for 25 years now, and tells me all the time after coming back from a temple session that it was the greatest thing that had ever done in her life, and is so grateful for the Holy Ghost telling her on that early morning, that the book of Mormon was true. She had been in three other churches, and had found the most peace to that point in the Catholic Church, but as she entered the waters of baptism, again with tears streaming down her face, she told me that she had finally received a fullness of the Gospel. God bless you my friend, don’t listen to the naysayers, most just left the church because they didn’t want to live the commandments, so they turn against it. I can’t wait to see your video after you go through the temple, (of your feelings about it) As I’ve watched you through this entire journey, I had a feeling in my heart that this would be the conclusion. To all others that have followed this good man, and are not LDS. I encourage you to call the church or go the the official LDS website and get a free copy of the Book of Mormon, it will change your life, if you read it with an open heart, truly believing that God will manifest the truth of it unto you, as is promised in the Book of Mormon, you will be as glad as the rest of us that you did. God bless you all.

I was baptized at age 28 into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The key was that after three years of investigation, after I had looked for answers to my questions about life after death without looking for a church, I finally prayed in earnest. I had an experience I’d not had before. I received personal revelation from the Holy Ghost. The unmistakable communication was that the church and all things pertaining to it were true. I then resolved to repent and do all the things I needed to do to be a Latter-day Saint. Now I’m 72, almost 73. I have remained an active member and have done a good deal of temple work in behalf of my family dead. You have done the right thing.

Welcome Bro. Boice. I converted in 1990. BEST CHOICE I EVER MADE!

My ancestor Orson Spencer was a prominent Baptist minister in Massachusetts. He at first regretted coming in contact with the Book of Mormon because he knew it was true, and he was forced to choose between 1) ignoring the truth and retaining his prosperous position, or 2) accepting the truth and being pushed out. I'm grateful he chose #2. He and his wife Catherine later died while serving. My heroes.

I’m a former Evangelical & converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints 2 years ago!! I know it’s one of the best decisions we could ever make!

I was converted to this wonderful church and baptized 8 years ago. It has profoundly changed and improved my life. I have an everlasting joy and comfort that I wouldn't trade for anything. Welcome!

I'm a convert from the Catholic Church!! Congratulations 👏🎉. The missionaries helped my mom to quit smoking 🚬🚭 and saved her life 🧬. I love the LDS faith!! ❤️😁
