baptizer joseph smith

".... In fact, there was a little 11-year-old boy named David Lewis who came to the meeting without his parents. He wanted to line up to be baptized, but Joseph Smith told him he needed to go home and talk it over with his parents. He did so, and they gave their permission. Less than a month after the Church was organized, on David’s 12th birthday, Joseph Smith baptized him in a stream. After the baptism, Joseph tried to persuade him not to go home because a violent thunderstorm had just broken. But David had promised his mother that he would come straight home, so Joseph honored that obedience and let him go, and he gave him a promise that the Lord would protect him. On the way, David became lost in the darkness and rain, but, recalling the Prophet’s promise, he exercised his faith and prayed for guidance. After his prayer, he saw something that looked like a lamp. He followed it, and it led him to his house (Kelly, Latter-day History, p.49-50).
