— A Spencer W. Kimball miracle — 1979 —
Two faith-promoting stories have recently been told about President Kimball, both of which occurred during the Area Conference held in the Philippines in 1979. At one of the large auditoriums in which they held a general session, the sound system didn’t function and couldn’t be fixed, but President Kimball proceeded with his sermon and every one in the entire hall could hear him perfectly well and understood his message. Secondly, during the conference, a Branch President came up to President Kimball and apologized to him because he only had 203 of his 208 branch members at the conference, despite the fact that they had traveled for 4 days by boat, bus , and foot to get there, at great personal sacrifice and expense. He also apologized for only bringing 250 investigators, who also had traveled for four days to attend the sessions.
