Welcome to Sri Lanka

We had the opportunity to meet with the rest of the dozen Latter-day Saint senior missionary couples scattered across southern India for a conference in Colombo, Sri Lanka. We heard amazing stories (like that of Anton and Ann Kumarasamy, pictured here) of the sacrifices made by Indians of Hindu, Buddhist, and Christian backgrounds who, upon understanding God’s plan for our happiness through living by his instructions to become more godly people here and to inherit his lifestyle in the hereafter, requested baptism at the cost of rejection by family and friends, and how many of them persevered long enough to bring that understanding to their families as well.
