Mr. MBUYI-MARCEL and Mrs. META-BERTINE and their 7 children belonged to a Protestant Church. One day the husband asked their minister why they didn't have a Prophet and Apostles in their church. He replied, "I don't know, but here's a pamphlet someone gave me that talks about them". It was a Joseph Smith's Testimony pamphlet. They read it, believed it, and then spent a long time finding the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. But they finally found it, and shortly afterwards, their family was baptized. The mother is now the Young Women's President in their ward. They are a special family!!!
Note: When a couple gets married in Africa, the wife does not change her last name. That is why the husband and wife often have different last names. But when they are Sealed in the Temple, they are asked to have the same last name. This family is planning to go to the Temple very soon.
