When April and Lacy McClung’s two sons had the opportunity to be student ambassadors to China and Europe, they didn’t know how they would pay for the trips, so the family held hands as Lacy prayed.
April recalls that after the family released hands, Lacy said, “The Spirit says, ‘What about the pound cake?’”
Lacy’s grandmother, Emily Magnolia McClung, had shared her pound cake recipe with Lacy when he was a teenager.
