Acey and Jalyn Shaw: In Sickness and In Health

We may not hear the words “in sickness and in health” in the temple, but Jalyn Shaw believes the meaning is still there as Latter-day Saints commit to love and serve each other through all eternity. In 2011, Jalyn and her husband, Acey, experienced firsthand what "in sickness and in health" really means when Acey contracted a rare virus. The virus left Acey without the use of his legs, as well as limited use of his arms and his voice. On this week’s episode, the couple shares what their experience has taught them about love, service, and eternity.

“It’s given us the opportunity to apply the gospel to our life. You can practice it and you can preach it and you can know it but to apply it is something different.”
