Listen "What Happens When You FINALLY Read the Book of Mormon | Ashlee's Story"
Episode Synopsis
Today Ashlee Jewlal joins us to share her incredibly conversion story! Ashlee was raised in a Christian home and started being more curious about different Christian religions. She researched a variety of religions including the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Ashlee decided to go on a volunteer trip to Peru. While there, she met Madeline, a recently returned Latter-day Saint missionary. Ashlee started going to Church and eventually, after a few roadblocks, was baptized. Her story is so beautiful!
