Chapter 7—My First Vision . It was not long after the passing of the time in 1844, that my first vision was given me. I was visiting Mrs. Haines at Portland, a dear sister in Christ, whose heart was knit with mine; five of us, all women, were kneeling quietly at the family altar. While we were praying, the power of God came upon me as I had never felt it before. {LS 64.1}

(64) Det var ikke længe efter 1844 at mit første syn blev givet mig. Jeg besøgte en kær søster i Kristus, hvis hjerte var sammenknyttet med mit; hvor fem af os, alle kvinder, knælede stille ved familie alteret. Medens vi bad, kom Guds kraft over mig, som jeg aldrig havde mærket det før.
