Baptized Spirits
by Matthew

I am a very religious person. In my religion, Mormonism, we have a youth group that always goes to the Los Angeles Temple to do Baptisms for the dead. So all the youth went and did their part. When it was my turn, out of nowhere, multitudes of spirits appeared, and as soon as I was done, I asked all of the youth if they saw the people over by a hallway. I pointed to where all of them where, and all youth said, "There's no one there. Are you okay?" I said, "You don't see those people over there by the hallway?" They all said no At that time I realized that they were the spirits of the people being baptized. I was shocked. I could not move. I was just so unbelievably happy to see them, I just don't have the words to describe it. The leaders in our church have said many times that when you do baptisms for the dead, sometimes the spirits come into the room to watch their baptisms. I tried to go over and get a closer look at them, but as I got closer to them, they started to fade away, like some sort of illusion, but then, as I backed away, they became more and more visible. This was the best experience of my life, and I will never forget it.
