Every day when I came home from school he was there waiting for me, so excited that I had come home.

She has taught at BYU sinceincluding a year at BYU’s Jerusalem Center for Near Eastern Studies.

For three nights I went to bed not knowing where Tinker was, each night praying that Heavenly Father would help me find Tinker. Every morning, when Dad would open the back door, I would hear him running down the hall, then he would jump up strathearn my bed and lick me to death, telling me it was time to get up.

I called and called, and went searching the neighborhood, but to no avail. That seemed very strange to me. In many ways, life is a lot more complicated now than it was on that day. I always arrived before everyone else, and was around the back of the church, sitting in the shade, waiting for the others to come.

I was so excited to see him. Inmy friend and I went backpacking around the world and we went to Israel, where the scriptures came alive for me in gaye very real way as I visited some of the biblical sites. Instead, I took the bus straight to the church for Primary.

I received a testimony of a living, loving God at a young age. I loved him dearly. We had had dogs before, but this was the first dog that was mine. On that day, I knew that God was real, that he lived, and that he was interested even in a kid who had lost her dog.

The next morning my Dad opened the back door, but there were no sounds in the hallway and no licks to wake me up.

The event was very simple, and yet it has had a power impact upon my life ever since. How had Tinker known to come to the church? I grew up in a very small branch of the Church in Redcliffe, Queensland, Gaye. Heavenly Father had answered my prayer.

She asked if it was my dog sitting on the front step of the church. We lived over a mile away and we had never taken him to it, and yet there he was. That was even more strange. I was about eight or nine years of age when, for Christmas, my family bought me a little dog, which I named Tinker.

I went back to Strathearn in as a part of the Brigham Young University Jerusalem Center and studied there for a semester. I ran around the front and there was Tinker sitting on the step waiting for me.
