Ten thousand people were baptized in the Han river in Seoul, Korea. Imagine! 10, 000 people giving their lives to Christ at one time! I will never forget it! ----I felt that the constant prayers of the Korean people had made the difference. I think we in the west should take prayer more seriously. Helen Goldie
About This Quote

The power of prayer is something that I feel that we all need to understand. Prayer is something that literally can save someone’s life. I am not talking about someone who is absolutely hopeless, but I am talking about the power of prayer of every person on this earth. This quote comes from a letter written by Elder J.

Reuben Clark, Jr., of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (now known as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). In this letter, Elder Clark shares his experience in South Korea when he was called to take a mission there in 1947. During his mission, he was able to witness thousands of people being baptized during his time in South Korea.

He writes about how he felt the power and blessing from all those people giving their lives to Christ during that time in history.
