  • We watched this today in BYC, and It brought tears to my eyes. I wish I could be an amazing person and example this this boy.

  • They showed this story yesterday in the worldwide leadership training broadcast. As I watched I couldn't stop the tears from streaming down my face. I believe that someday Dayton is going to stand in a perfect body and he will testify to God on behalf of Spencer for this great act of love. Spencer, you are an inspiration to me. Thank you for this video.

  • Absolutely inspiring!!

  • very moving may god bless both the guys

  • looks like 16 people on youtube didn't finish their triathlon.

  • Spencer & Dayton you are both Inspirations in my heart. Honestly you brought me to tears i feel so uplifted and overwhelmed with the spirit, Keep doing what you do cause Heavenly Father will Bless you :) Jah Bless

  • 82 place, although 1st place in my book. Great example of how we are supposed to be. Keep it up.

  • agreed. I cried when i watched this. This is such an inspiring story. i really really needed to see this.

  • he is amazing! truely a God son

  • Thank you for being a modern day example of Christs attitude to others

  • I first saw this at efy this year I was sat next to my friend Josh afther it we talked and came to realise if everyone was like this boy the earth would be like Zion this is what the priesthood is about it's about serving your fellow man :)

  • The day will come when Dayton will be able to verbally thank Spencer for being such a great friend to him. These boys will be friends for eternity. This is just so special.

  • My daughter called me the other day and said. "Mom, have you seen the video of Spencer Zimmerman, your little boy in nursery?!" What a sweet little boy you were and what a fine young man you are becoming. I am so proud of you.

  • this just made my day thankyou !

  • Words do not adequately describe the admiration I have for this 13-year boy. Yes, very inspiring. I cried almost the whole way through this video.

  • David, you have raised an amazing boy, way to go. How are things going these days? - Brandon Fish

  • What an inspiring message! We just watched this as a family and felt the Spirit so strongly. What a surprise to see Dayton in the video! We were in the Hayward's ward 9 years ago and I was briefly their home teacher. We moved away not long after and lost contact. I'm sure Dayton is just as wonderful today as he was all those year ago. Also, I constantly tell my oldest, Easton (8). the importance of being a leader each day. Thank you to Spencer for setting such a powerful example for him.

  • This story is amazing i love the brother ship that Spencer has with Dayton. Way to go.

  • The future is in good hands when we have youth that are as caring as this young man is! God Bless You!!

  • How could you dislike this story? This is a story of true Christ-like love!

  • wow. That's amazing.

  • I don't understand what this has to do with Mormonism.

  • @NavajoJoe66

    It is about service. In our religion we also believe in service to our fellow men.

  • @NavajoJoe66 It's just a great message to spread to anyone! The Mormon's have '13 articles of faith' that describe the basics of their beliefs. The last one mentions "If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things." That's what it has to do with Mormonism

  • @NavajoJoe66 He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints also known as the "Mormons".

  • Bravo, Dayton and Spencer...

  • This is what true religion is really about, being there for others! Those who didn't like this true story just don't understand....

  • This is what religion is really about, being there for others! Those who didn't like this true story just don't understand....

  • spencer is in my 8th hour computers class

  • how could anybody with a heart click the dislike button?

  • That is so awesome

  • this video shows how us preisthood holders should be and he should be recognized for his act of kindness all over the world!! this video is a christ like act.

  • This young man gives me hope for the future of our country!

  • These young men need more recognition than this. This deacons president is an example that should be shown around the world!

  • Real love is expressed both in words and actions. This young man reveals both. It is a privilege to view this.

  • This is awesome!!!

  • This is one of the best things I've ever seen! Cried a lot, but feeling so spiritually inspired! Well done both of you!

  • 4 people, (dislikes) have confusion on what real love is.

  • how could this 4 people not like this video...maybe they just don't understand the meaning of love...

  • What strong youth! It brought tears to my eyes

  • Touching... Remember the Spirit is in you.

  • Very very beautiful and heart warming. If only everyone realised its the smallest act of kindess that makes the biggest effect. May we all remember to appreciate one another, and to show patience towards those who don't understand. I love the fact that while watching this, my daughter who is four, asked if he was a "Elder", I said "No honey, however, every member is a missionary"

  • Thank you Spencer and Dayton for making my day.

  • Christ like love and i am overwhelmed by the Spirit

  • This is so moving ♥

  • awww :)

  • That is so amazing :)

  • This gives me so much hope for the rising generation. There is such an amazing example of Christ-like love in this young man. My 4 children are watching these videos and learning from these youth what the best role models look like!!

  • This is what being a true disciple of Christ is all about!

  • Doing what Jesus would do if He were here. Amazing.

  • Beautiful story. Spencer is such an inspiration as is Dayton. Wow.

  • Very inspiring. Grateful to see an LDS deacon's quorum president feel such responsibility for other young men in his ward.

  • This is my hometown, my mayor, my people... I just watched this on my way to class and started bawling... had to go redo my makeup :)

  • Truly Christlike and an example to us all.

  • What Christlike act. You're truly an inspiration to us. Thank you Spencer and Dayton.

  • Absolutely inspirational and unselfish. Really just makes me thankful that I am a part of this glorious gospel and restored Church. With special people such as Spencer and Dayton in it, the Lord truly is saving the best until last as they will be our leaders in every way. Dayton may never be able to serve a mission as Spencer will, but he certainly is serving a mission for the Lord with every breath he takes as an example in courage to us all - they both do. Love from across the Pond. Denise X

  • I see love for his fellow man. It is so good to see it learned at such a young age.

  • @NavajoJoe66

    They are in a quorum together in church, and the values learned in Christianity have taught him that even though it would take a lot of sacrifice he should do this great thing for his fellow brother
