Stories from My Life George Durrant

Herschel "Bones" Pedersen has been an instrument in the hands of the Lord in helping to rescue many people from whatever vicissitudes life brings. Whether as a young missionary in Denmark, a basketball player, mission president, Geneva Steel worker, mission representative of the Twelve or senior missionary with his wife, remarkable success in sharing the gospel has followed Herschel everywhere. Unwilling to invite attention to himself, Herschel has for years resisted putting these stories to print; persuaded that they might ultimately be helpful to others, he finally agreed to their publication. Wade FillmoreAs I interviewed Brother Pedersen for this book I would go home after each session and tell my family about what he had told me that day. I longed for them and everyone else to know what an ordinary man could do who was willing to put his hand into the hand of God and give his life to strengthening others. I dreamed of a book that all could have so that they could know Herschel as I do and thus love him as I do. George Durrant
