Hello. I’m Addie and this is my new
friend Sarah. She’s an amazing artist. And today she will be painting
a picture of Alma at the waters of Mormon. But there's
something special about Sarah.
She wears a device which helps to
hear the world in a unique way.
Isn't it cool how people live and
create in different ways? Let's see what she can do.

What's your favorite thing?
Probably—I really like to draw
in my free time. Whoa!
Are you going to be drawing on this?
Yes, I'm going to be painting on it.
I bet it'll look really cool. Yes.
Guess what I'm painting. What?
What are you painting?
I'm going to be painting a picture
from the waters of Mormon. I love that story! What
kind of paint is it?
This is acrylic paint.
Why are we using acrylic?
We're using the acrylic because
it sticks better on the glass.
This is a reference picture
of the sketch I did.
What are those things behind the ear
ears? They kind of look like ear pods.
These are cochlear implants. I got them
when I was about six years old.
I need these because I cannot
hear without them.
You know, I’ve had some
eye surgeries. You did?
When I was born, I needed glasses, but we didn’t know until I was
turning two, I think. So I had to go get the surgery
and I could have gone blind.
Wow. That's a big story. Yeah,
I'm glad you can see.
And I'm glad you can hear.
Alma was a good man who loved God
and wanted to do what was right.
One day he heard a prophet named
Abinadi speak about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Alma was touched by Abinadi’s words
and believed in his teachings.
Alma had faith in Jesus Christ
and repented of his sins,
and then he began to teach other
people about Jesus Christ.
He taught the people in a beautiful
place near a fountain of pure water.
After the people learned about Jesus,
they wanted to follow Him.
Alma invited them to be baptized.
The people were so happy to be baptized
that they clap their hands for joy.
That looks so cool!
How did you do that?
Thank you. Just like the people of Alma, when I was baptized, I made a covenant
or promise to take upon me the name of Jesus Christ.
I'm glad I was baptized.
Thank you so much for sharing your
talent with me. I really love this It's so pretty! Well,
thank you so much!
Wow, that was an amazing painting.
Thanks, Sarah. See you all next time.
