I had to call Salt Lake

June 13, 2008 | Ancestry

I made a bad mistake in trying to seal two of my ancestors.  A great-great aunt from the Chapman side, Desty Lavinia Chapman, and her husband John Zollicoffer Anderson.  I hit the “Print Now” key, and two things went wrong.  The printer was out of paper, and I didn’t give it time to print, before I hit the “Yes” key (that It had been printed correctly)  The computer picked it up to mean it had really been printed, and put “In Progress” by the names, meaning that the work was in progress, and I couldn’t do anymore about it, and neither could anybody else.  I went “nut” trying to figure it out, and finally had to call for help.  Two angels in Salt Lake walked me carefully through the steps, and got me out of the jam.  I burst into tears, and could barely say “thank you”.  I was so relieved and happy.  This work is so important.  And I had just read in a book that I’m reading , “Temple Manifestations” about a temple worker whose father, who was not a member of the church, appeared to him in the Manti Temple, and told his son that he and his mother had to live separate and apart, and only he could do the ordinance work to seal them, so that they could be together, and would he please find out what he had to do, and get it done.  He promised his father he would surely do it, and he did.  That really pushed me to desperate means today to do something about this couple.  I was purely stumped.  We are not to think for one moment that this work isn’t important, because the spirits are watching us continually, and hoping that we will remember them.
