From Foster Care to Forever Hugs

When Jeannie was 5 years old, her dad drove her to the salt flats and left her there alone in the middle of the night. Little did she know that this was just the beginning of the incredibly difficult trials and challenges she would face in her life. But God had a plan for her, and while it would take many years, she was finally able to discover the gospel and realize her true worth.  Now in her 60's Jeannie spends her time giving children hope and comfort with her charity Forever Hugs, where she provides teddy bears to kids in hospitals.

Overcoming Trials and Swimming the English Channel

As Greg stood in front of his Elder's Quorum one Sunday, he knew that many of them were going through really difficult trials.  It was in this moment that he made the comment "I could probably swim 45 yards on my own, but with God's help I could swim the English Channel". 6 years later at the age of 52, he actually did. Greg's story isn't merely a tale of athletic triumph; it's a journey of battling through the storms of addiction, business failure, health scares, difficult trials, and the quest for purpose. Greg's reflections on the miraculous assistance he received, the significance of family support, and the life lessons that emerged from the depths of the English Channel encapsulate his 15-hour testament to human endurance, all anchored by an unshakeable faith.
