I learned early that if you dont want to go to school for a career . . . then this was the life. And there were rules. You better not drink, you better not be a big shot and you better always stay low and keep your mouth shut. If youre going to play the game, youve got to play smart.Thus began Mario Faciones slow descent into the Mafia world. With a desire to please his father, Facione kept the rules taught him - dont get caught, know your people. . . never let them have control of what youre doing, and never let anyone fully know what youre up to.So when two clean-cut young men in dark suits showed up on his doorstep, Faciones main concern was to figure out the scam they were selling. Instead, he became surprisingly relaxed as these two answered every question he had unsuccessfully asked other clergymen. He learned real truth and began a journey towards knowledge. Yes, there is a reason why we are here on earth; yes, you can re-remember who we are and yes, its true, Heavenly Father still speaks through a modern-day prophet.Marion Faciones story is one mans extraordinary journey through the darkness into the light. Reading his story will confirm again that the gospel is truly for every child of God who is willing to change . . . even someone who wants to go from Mafia to Mormon.
