LDS Church News: Boy Scout hero follows the Spirit
Gabe Campbell of the Springville Utah Spring Creek Stake very much looks the part of a typical 12-year-old. He plays electric guitar, attends seventh grade and frequently flashes his bright white smile beneath a head full of dark brown curls.
But Larry and Shirley Bell, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from Eureka, Utah, know that Gabe is no run-of-the-mill adolescent because earlier this year Gabe helped save their lives by following the inspiration of the Holy Ghost.
On the afternoon of July 3, the Bells were boating in Utah Lake near Provo. Around 5 p.m., their boat capsized. Enduring one- to three-foot waves, Brother Bell, 61, clung to the boat's hull after discovering his life jacket was rotten and useless. Not knowing how to swim, Sister Bell, 60, lay back in her life vest and steadily floated away from her husband.
