Choosing Joy Amidst War & Tragedy

When Michele Green was a little girl living in Vietnam, her town was brutally attacked by escaped convicts from a nearby prison, and most of her family were killed, including her parents. Now an orphan, Michele's life looked bleak.  But God had a plan for her that eventually led her to the gospel, and ultimately to the United States. With her new found faith, Michele got married and raised an amazing family; however, more trials and tragedy waited in the wings, including various bouts with cancer - one of which led to the loss of a son, a tragic car accident that took the life of another, and a debilitating stroke that left her husband incapacitated for 21 years - forcing her to become his primary caregiver while working full-time and raising their 9 children.

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.
