Holland, left, Elder Paul Koelliker, center, greet Mayor Masini of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo. Photo courtesy Africa Southeast Area.]]<br /> In August of 2009 Elder [[Jeffrey R. Holland]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] dedicated the countries of Cameroon and Rwanda for the preaching of the gospel. Elder Holland is the first known apostle to visit the two nations. Elder Holland's Africa trip took him to seven countries in all, with the other stops on his itinerary being Ethiopia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Uganda and Zimbabwe. Elder [[Paul E. Koelliker]] of the Seventy and Africa Southeast Area president accompanied Elder Holland during his travels.<br /> <br /> Elder Holland dedicated the country of Cameroon on August 21, 2009, on a green hillside overlooking Cameroon's capital city of Yaounde in the company of local church leaders. Later in the day, approximately 600 people gathered to hear Elder Holland speak at Yaounde's City Center. <br /> <br /> Elder Holland dedicated Rwanda on Aug. 27 during a sacred moment on the top of a mountain overlooking the capital city, Kigali. Elder Holland's Africa trip began in Ethiopia, where he spoke to missionaries and held a large fireside. He then presided over a stake conference in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where the Kinshasa DR Congo Masini Stake was split to create the Kinshasa DR Congo Kimbanseke Stake — DR Congo's eighth stake. Nearly 2,700 members gathered in two meetinghouses with the conference being broadcast from one location to the other over a local cable channel. At the stake conference, 56 men were sustained to receive the Melchizedek [[Priesthood]]. Elder Holland then took advantage of a layover in Nairobi, Kenya, to disembark and speak to the zone leaders of the Kenya Nairobi Mission. In Uganda, Elder Holland presided over a meeting of 1500 Latter-day Saints. Also in Uganda, Elder Holland paid a visit to the New Hope for Africa school and orphanage. Nearly 150 orphans ages 4 to 17 live at New Hope for Africa, where the Church is providing new living quarters and other supplies for learning. Elder Holland's travels wound down with a district conference Aug. 29-30 for the Mutare Zimbabwe District. Elder Holland called Africa &quot;one of the bright, beautiful emerging frontiers of the Church.&quot; [http://www.ldschurchnews.com/articles/57850/Dedication-blesses-two-African-nations.html]<br /> <br /> *[https://news-africa.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/elder-stevenson-testifies-of-jesus-christ-in-kinshasa-dr-congo Church Newsroom, &quot;Elder Stevenson Testifies of Jesus Christ in Kinshasa, DR Congo]<br /> <br /> ==Stakes Formed in Uganda==<br /> [[Image:Uganda_Stake_Presidency.jpg|left|frame|alt=Mormon Stake Presidency in Uganda|The First Stake Presidency in Uganda]]<br /> The first [[stake]] of [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints] in Uganda was organized on Sunday, January 17, 2010. Almost 1,000 members met at the Kololo meetinghouse in Kampala to sustain the new stake presidency. A stake [[Patriarch|patriarch]], was sustained, enabling local Latter-day Saints to receive [[Patriarchal Blessings|patriarchal blessings]] without having to travel to Kenya.<br /> <br /> The organization of the stake in Uganda, the 25th stake in the Africa Southeast Area, had been long anticipated by the members, some of whom had been baptized in the mid-1990s. Uganda was assigned to the Kenya Nairobi Mission at its formation in 1991. Districts in Kampala and Jinja were organized in 1992. Missionary work has concentrated in those two areas, partly due to the more than three dozen languages found in the country. <br /> <br /> Uganda comes from a strong Christian culture and the people often express their faith in Jesus Christ. In 2005, the Uganda Kampala Mission was formed, which includes the countries of Uganda, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Southern Sudan.<br /> <br /> The New York Times published an in-depth piece about Latter-day Saint missionaries in Uganda. The article, written by Josh Kron, explained the transformative effect missions have on the young men and women who serve, meticulously follows the active day in the life of missionaries in Uganda and clarifies common misconceptions people have of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.[https://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/15/education/edlife/at-age-19-from-utah-to-uganda.html?_r=1]<br /> <br /> On January 22, 2017, a third stake was organized in Uganda by splitting the Kampala Uganda Stake, creating the Kampala Uganda South Stake. As part of the changes, the Kampala Uganda Stake was renamed Kampala Uganda North Stake. The second stake was organized on November 29, 2015.<br /> <br /> Elder [[David A. Bednar]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] visited Uganda in January 2014. He was joined by Elder [[L. Whitney Clayton]] of the Presidency of the Seventy. Elder [[Dale G. Renlund]] was then serving as Southeast Africa Area President. [[Jean B. Bingham]], then [[Relief Society]] General President, visited in February 2017 with [[Sharon Eubank]], director of Humanitarian Services and LDS Charities of the Church.<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNJzj6sYD7c&amp;t=49s&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> ==New Delhi, India Sees Church Growth==<br /> [[Image:New_Delhi_missionaries.jpg|left|frame|alt=Mormon Missionaries in India|Latter-day Saint Missionaries in New Delhi, India. Mike Terry, Deseret News.]]<br /> The India New Delhi Mission of the Church of Jesus Christ (established in November 2007 and includes Northern India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal) is seeing growth. It is the second mission in India. [[William K. Jackson]] presided over the India New Delhi Mission from 2009 to 2012. He and his family lived in India before, since he served as a physician with U.S. Embassies abroad. When they were first there in 1990, there was one branch in New Delhi, and it was almost exclusively expatriates (non-citizens of India). When they went back in 2002, there were two branches in New Delhi — almost exclusively Indian with just a smattering of expatriates. The India New Delhi Mission was established in late 2007. By the summer of 2009 the New Delhi mission had expanded to three districts that include 19 branches across its four countries. [http://www.ldschurchnews.com/articles/57849/Church-in-New-Delhi-moving-forward.html]<br /> <br /> ===Growth in India in 2009===<br /> Growth of the Church in southern India was indicated by the formation of three new districts in the India Bangalore Mission on Sunday, October 11, 2009. They bring to five the total number of India districts in the Mormon mission, which also has a district on the island nation of Sri Lanka.<br /> <br /> [[Image:India_Church_Leaders.jpg|right|frame|alt=Mormon Leaders of the five districts and other leaders of the India Bangalore Mission|Leaders of the five districts and other leaders of the India Bangalore Mission in 2009]]<br /> <br /> India Bangalore Mission President Melvin R. Nichols (2007-2010) conducted the organizing meeting that was broadcast via the Internet for viewing by members gathered in 14 meetinghouses in India and Sri Lanka. Elder [[Kent D. Watson]] of the Seventy, first counselor in the Asia Area presidency, oversaw the meeting linked by the Internet from Hong Kong. The meeting was attended by approximately 1,978 members, believed to be the largest gathering of Latter-day Saints in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in India.<br /> <br /> The three new districts are located in the cities of Coimbatore, Chennai, and Vishakhapatnam, key cities in the region. There are two branches in the Chennai District, four in the Coimbatore District and six in the Vishakhapatnam District. The two original districts -- Bangalore and Hyderabad -- were organized in the early 1990s and have four branches each. Total membership in the five districts is slightly more than 5,300.<br /> <br /> ===The Church of Jesus Christ in India in 2023===<br /> The first stake in India was organized in Hyderabad in 2012. Church membership in India, as of 2023, is close to 15,000. There are four stakes with 45 congregations. <br /> <br /> Reflecting the growth of the Church of Jesus Christ in India, the [[Bengaluru India Temple]] was announced in April 2018 by Church president [[Russell M. Nelson]]. Construction on the temple began in December 2020 and is expected to be completed in early 2026. President Nelson stood before a large congregation of Church members in Bengaluru, India, as the fifth stop on his 2018 global ministry tour. He said: &quot;Our plans were to announce six new temples at conference time. The Lord told me on the eve of conference: 'Announce a temple in India.'&quot; He emphasized, &quot;That was the Lord's doing.&quot;[https://www.deseret.com/2018/4/19/20644156/in-india-the-story-of-the-india-lds-temple-announcement-is-revealed] <br /> <br /> Until the Bengaluru India Temple is completed, the nearest temple for members of the Church in India is the [[Hong Kong China Temple]], which was renovated from 2019 to 2022. <br /> <br /> *[https://www.deseret.com/2018/4/19/20644156/in-india-the-story-of-the-india-lds-temple-announcement-is-revealed Deseret News, &quot;In India, the story of the India LDS temple announcement is revealed,&quot; by Sarah Jane Weaver]<br /> *[https://www.ldsliving.com/from-arranged-marriage-to-temple-sealing-a-different-kind-of-latter-day-love-story/s/90097 LDS Living, &quot;From Arranged Marriage to Temple Sealing: A Different Kind of Latter-day Love Story&quot;]<br /> <br /> ==Church Growth in the Dominican Republic==<br /> In November, 2009, Elder [[M. Russell Ballard]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] visited the Dominican Republic, a country that he had visited 30 years earlier when there were just a handful of handful of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints there. At the time of his 2009 visit, more than 110,000 Latter-day Saints lived in the island nation. At the end of 2023, the Church had over 147,000 members worshipping in 203 congregations. <br /> <br /> The temple in Santo Domingo was dedicated in 2000. It was the first Latter-day Saint temple built in the Caribbean and in the Dominican Republic.<br /> <br /> The 2023 Church-wide youth theme video, &quot;I Can Do All Things Through Christ,&quot; was filmed entirely in the Dominican Republic with an all-Dominican crew and actors. <br /> <br /> * [https://rsc.byu.edu/go-ye-all-world/senior-missionaries-caribbean Religious Studies Center, &quot;Senior Missionaries in the Caribbean: Opening the Islands of the Sea, 1978–90,&quot; by Clinton D.

The new building is on a major high-profile boulevard in Moeng Than Thani, a suburb of Bangkok. The 16,350-square-foot building accommodates three branches or wards with offices for the district presidency as well. The chapel has the capacity for 230 people, increasing to 1,000 when opened up into the cultural hall. There are 17 classrooms, and the building will be capable of housing a stake in the future. Besides a basketball court inside the building, there will be another outside on the grounds. Parking for 84 cars is available.[https://www.thechurchnews.com/2010/2/2/23228887/construction-begins-on-largest-latter-day-saint-meetinghouse-in-thailand]<br /> <br /> According to Rittrong Wangsuwan of the Church's Thailand Physical Facilities Department, Thailand has 19 Church-owned meetinghouses plus 18 rental buildings for 42 congregations. There are four stakes in Thailand, as of the end of 2023.<br /> <br /> The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints opened a new missionary training center — its 10th worldwide — in Bangkok, Thailand, in January 2024.<br /> <br /> The Thailand MTC is located in the annex adjacent to the new six-story [[Bangkok Thailand Temple]], which was dedicated and began operations in October 2023.<br /> <br /> The Thailand MTC will help accommodate the training of new full-time missionaries who are from Southeast Asia and other regions.<br /> <br /> ==A History of Growth in Southeast Asia==<br /> Church growth in Southeast Asia is rooted in past wars in the area. During the periods of American involvement, especially in the war in Vietnam, thousands upon thousands of Americans have lived temporarily in Southeast Asia as part of military support staff and their families. &quot;With the U.S. entrance into the Vietnam War, and the build up of U.S. military personnel in Vietnam that process was accelerated as we poured billions of dollars into the economies of Japan, Okinawa, Taiwan, Korea and other countries and islands in the military theater of operation. It required logistical support of supplies and equipment both for the war and for reconstruction, and experts in all kinds of disciplines: infrastructure construction, military support facilities, telecommunications, teaching and training in modern industry and government, etc.&quot; [http://www.ldsmag.com/churchupdate/100423rooted.html]<br /> <br /> U.S. personnel set up &quot;facilities, bases of operations, supply depots, transit facilities, R&amp;R travel and leisure operations, hotels, and countless other needed goods and services. Each of these disciplines – and hundreds more – required highly specialized personnel, training, and support facilities of their own. This multiplied the 150,000 actual troops “in country” in Vietnam at any given time by ten fold. In total, more than 3,000,000 U.S. servicemen and women served in Vietnam from 1959 thru 1975.&quot; Some of these people were Latter-day Saints. As residents of Southeast Asia converted to the Church, they became future leaders, as their children became future missionaries.<br /> <br /> Among countries and territories in Asia, by far the largest increase in Church membership over 2011 through 2021 has been in the Philippines. The Philippines is also the Asian nation with the most members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, followed by Japan and South Korea.<br /> <br /> Here are some statistics for the area:<br /> <br /> {| class=&quot;wikitable sortable&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;background: #e5d16a;&quot;<br /> | style=&quot;background: #e5936a;&quot; | '''Country'''<br /> | style=&quot;background: #e5936a;&quot; | '''Members in 1965'''<br /> | style=&quot;background: #e5936a;&quot; | '''Members in 2010'''<br /> | style=&quot;background: #e5936a;&quot; | '''Members in 2023'''<br /> | style=&quot;background: #e5936a;&quot; | '''Temples in 2023'''<br /> |----<br /> |Philippines<br /> |1900<br /> |632,000<br /> |853,254<br /> |13<br /> |----<br /> |Japan<br /> |10,000<br /> |124,000<br /> |130,251<br /> |5<br /> |----<br /> |South Korea<br /> |2600<br /> |82,000<br /> |88,607<br /> |2<br /> |----<br /> |Hong Kong<br /> |2400<br /> |24,000<br /> |24,611<br /> |1<br /> |----<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==New Stake Created in Guam==<br /> [[Image:Barrigada Guam Stake.jpg|alt=Guam Stake Center of the Mormon Church|right|frame]]<br /> The new Barrigada Guam [[Stake]] was created under the supervision of apostle [[L. Tom Perry]] during a conference held on December 12, 2010. The creation of the stake means that local members have progressed to the point that they can fill all positions of service in their local areas. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has no paid clergy. It's up to the members to fill every position in their congregations. When local leadership has not come to fruition, or numbers of members are few, then the mission and missionaries fill the slots. <br /> <br /> :&quot;The first known members on Guam came with the U.S. armed forces during WWII, bringing groups of members to the island from 1944-45. During this time, membership grew and auxiliaries were organized within the Guam Branch. Meetings were held in military facilities, and later land was purchased and huts were used as a meetinghouse.&quot; [https://www.thechurchnews.com/2011/1/15/23227407/years-of-faith-and-effort-for-members-of-new-stake-in-guam#:~:text=Nearly%20800%20local%20members%20unanimously,12%2C%202010.] <br /> <br /> In 1951, fundraising events by the members raised enough money to purchase land and two Quonset huts, which they used for a chapel and classrooms. The facilities were dedicated in 1953 and Guam became a dependent branch of the Oahu Hawaii Stake.<br /> <br /> Missionaries arrived in August 1957. Buildings were constructed where the Latter-day Saints could meet, but the Guam Branch was part of the Honolulu Hawaii Stake (1970). In May 1976, the Guam Ward was divided. The first Chamorro couple to join, Don Calvo and his wife, Maria, were baptized in May 1977. The Agat Branch was created in 1978. And in 1979, Herbert J. Leddy, the first missionary of Chamorro lineage, was called to the Tennessee Nashville Mission.<br /> <br /> The Micronesia Guam Mission was created on April 1, 1980, and selections of the Book of Mormon have been translated into Chamorro. Membership in 1995 was 1,400. Church membership in 2023 in Guam is about 2,500. Much of the growth has come from convert baptisms.<br /> <br /> The [[Yigo Guam Temple]], the first temple built in the Micronesia islands (and in the territory of Guam) was dedicated on May 22, 2022, by Elder [[David A. Bednar]].<br /> <br /> ==Missions of the Church==<br /> To accommodate rising numbers of missionaries (now at more than 72,000), The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will open 36 new missions on July 1, 2024. This puts the total number of missions at 450 — the highest number in Church history.<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9Llq-ew-js&amp;t=2s&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Missionary Work]][[Category:Doctrine and Covenants Topics]]<br /> <br /> [[es:Obra Misional]]<br /> [[ru:Миссионерская работа]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wendell_B._Mendenhall&diff=77442 Wendell B.

After being taught the gospel, they joined [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]. Shortly thereafter, they returned to their native Iceland to spread their new faith.<br /> <br /> After Þórarinn’s untimely death, Guðmundur preached alone for almost two years. In 1853, despite ongoing opposition, he organized a branch on the Westman Islands.[https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/facts-and-statistics/country/iceland] Resulting Icelander converts to the Church were baptized in the Mormon Pond and from 1854 to 1914, they emigrated from Iceland and gathered with the Saints in the Mountain West. <br /> <br /> Some 100 friends, family descendants, and Iceland government officials gathered at Mormon Pond on June 30, 2000, and honored 410 Icelanders converts with a dedication of a monument.<br /> <br /> The monument was dedicated by Elder [[W. Rolfe Kerr]], who was then serving as Area President of Europe North Area of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. David A. Ashby, President of the Icelandic Association of Utah, Inc. presented the monument to the people of Iceland on behalf of the Icelandic Association of Utah. Sigrun Inga Sigurfeirsdottir, president of the city council, Vestmanneyjar, accepted the gift on behalf of the people of Iceland.<br /> The Icelandic Association of Utah and Friends raised enough funds in in-kind donations to erect the monument that faces the &quot;Mormon Pond.&quot; <br /> <br /> The black-granite monument base is engraved with the names of the 410 emigrants. It is topped with an 8-foot sculpture, &quot;The Messenger.&quot; Artist [[Gary Price]] of Springville, Utah, created the work using his mother as the inspiration. “It represents an angel of light, truth, comfort and whatever one might need to carry on the earthly journey, just as the emigrants needed help on their journey. The figure is reaching out to the Mormon Pond and the Atlantic, which the Icelanders had to cross to reach their new Zion.”[https://www.thechurchnews.com/2000/7/15/23246124/a-monument-at-mormon-pond]<br /> Also engraved on the monument is a scriptural passage: &quot;And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm. . . .&quot; (Ezekiel 20:34).<br /> <br /> A similar monument, [[The Icelandic Memorial|the Icelandic Memorial]], is located in Spanish Fork, Utah, the first Icelandic settlement in the United States in 1855.<br /> <br /> Other events included the opening of a museum devoted to Latter-day Saint Church history focusing on the emigration and culminating with the dedication of the first Latter-day Saint meetinghouse to be constructed in Iceland. A conference of the Iceland mission district and the observance of 1,000 years of Christianity in Iceland was also held. <br /> <br /> The [[Book of Mormon]] was published in Icelandic in 1981. Although the number of church members in Iceland remains small, Icelandic Saints form a close-knit community.[https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/facts-and-statistics/country/iceland] <br /> <br /> In January 2024, Bergdís Ellertsdóttir, Iceland's ambassador to the United States, visited Salt Lake City, Utah, where she met with leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including President [[Russell M.

Jesus taught us to love God with all our heart and to love our neighbors ([https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/nt/matt/22?lang=eng&amp;id=36-40#36 see Matthew 22:36–40]).<br /> <br /> The initiative was initially created “to inspire people to make the holidays more meaningful by helping others and spending valuable time with loved ones.”[https://www.boncom.com/project/light-the-world-duplicate]<br /> <br /> Light The World was launched in 2016 by [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints] and at the end of the year, more than 200,000 acts of service were shared on social media.[https://www.boncom.com/project/light-the-world-duplicate] <br /> <br /> For the month of December, specific daily service prompts were provided to help us focus our lives on helping others during the Christmas season. <br /> <br /> For the 2017 campaign, the Giving Machines concept was launched. “The machines provided a way for tens of thousands of people to quickly and easily give to charity during the Christmas season using retrofitted vending machines stocked with donation items.[https://www.boncom.com/project/light-the-world-duplicate] <br /> <br /> As of November 2023, the Light The World Giving Machines have now raised $22 million from 1.5 million donors in six years, said Karl Cheney, the initiative’s manager in the Missionary Department of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Church covers all costs, so 100 percent of every donation goes to the charitable cause of a donor’s choice.<br /> <br /> Church leaders and charitable partners say the Giving Machines provide both short-term needs and long-lasting change.<br /> <br /> :The unique machines will offer donors 1,200 different charitable items in 2023, from meals and clothing to livestock and beehives. The donations will go to a dozen global charities like African Girls Hope Foundation and UNICEF or to about 240 local nonprofit organizations.[https://www.deseret.com/2023/11/10/23951597/giving-machines-2023-giving-machine-locations]<br /> <br /> Light The World Giving Machines will be placed in 61 cities in seven countries for 2023. Each machine is tailored to its region. There will be Giving Machines in 43 cities across the United States and 18 cities in Australia, Canada, Guatemala, Mexico, New Zealand, and the Philippines. Donors can choose to give money to a local charity or to a global charity that might provide goats or piglets to a family or school tuition to an orphan.<br /> <br /> The Giving Machines have become well known for offering livestock that charities distribute to families to help them feed themselves or start small businesses. Last year, givers purchased 41,000 chickens, 25,000 ducks and 3,800 beehives. “Chickens, goats, piglets and beehives provided through the Giving Machines have benefited 20,000 families in Kenya and Tanzania over three years, said Mary Obiero, director of relief and development protection for Church World Service Africa. Obiero said giving the livestock to women has improved gender equity in the villages where CWSA works.”[https://www.deseret.com/2023/11/10/23951597/giving-machines-2023-giving-machine-locations]<br /> <br /> Donation locations are available in [https://www.deseret.com/2023/11/10/23951597/giving-machines-2023-giving-machine-locations this article] and [https://lds365.com/2023/11/15/where-you-can-donate-to-a-light-the-world-giving-machine-in-2023/ this article].

Known as the &quot;Land of Smiles,&quot; Thailand today is home to more than 22,000 Latter-day Saints, organized in four [[Stake|stakes]], 2 [[District|districts]], and 42 congregations. The Bangkok Thailand Temple will be the first Latter-day Saint temple in the country, serving members of the Church throughout Southeast Asia. Members currently attend temple worship services in the [[Hong Kong China Temple]], over 1,000 miles away.<br /> <br /> Almost 20 years after the first [[Stake|stake]] was organized in Bangkok, Thailand, in 1995, the city’s second stake was organized on 15 June 2014, and its third on 27 November 2016. The first stake in Thailand outside of Bangkok was organized in Ubon on 14 June 2015. Two other districts operate in the country, headquartered in Chiang Mai and Udorn, which are expected to be reorganized as stakes in the coming years.<br /> <br /> In neighboring Cambodia, the country's first two stakes were both organized on 25 May 2014. Stakes have also been organized in the surrounding nations of India, Indonesia, and Singapore, and several districts operate in nearby Malaysia.<br /> <br /> President [[Russell M. Nelson]] and Elder [[Jeffrey R. Holland]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] visited Bangkok, including the future temple site, as part of President Nelson's 2019 worldwide ministry tour.

The property, acquired by [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints] in 2008, sits directly in front of the Makkasen Station on Bangkok's Airport Rail Link, making for rapid and dependable transportation from Suvarnabhumi Airport, which opened in 2006.

The nearly 250-foot-tall temple follows the patterns and colors found within Thai architecture. Many of these patterns overlay various diamond shapes with lotus flower elements and a herringbone pattern, evoking woven palms used in traditional arts and goods. With the combination of the screened spires and windows, the temple forms a beautiful silhouette in the Bangkok skyline.<br /> <br /> A separate 91,370-square-foot multipurpose building stands behind the temple, housing two church meetinghouses, an area service center, [[Seminary]] and [[Institute]] classrooms, and [[Mission]] offices and living quarters.

Hinckley]] became the first president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to visit Thailand, where he enjoyed a &quot;pre-birthday&quot; celebration hosted by Deputy Prime Minister Bhichai Rattakul. The next morning, he met with Bangkok Governor Bhichit Rattakul and Thailand Prime Minister Chuan Leepkai who thanked him for all the work that Latter-day Saint volunteers had done for Thailand, noting, in particular, the 100 volunteers who had taught more than 300,000 English teachers and students over the previous three years.<br /> <br /> Bangkok was the second stop in a tour of Asia and the South Pacific to dedicate four temples: [[Fukuoka Japan Temple]], [[Adelaide Australia Temple]], [[Melbourne Australia Temple]], and [[Suva Fiji Temple]]. Before leaving Bangkok, President Hinckley addressed a congregation of over 2,600 members at the Thailand Air Force Convention Center. Some members had traveled 18 hours by bus to be in attendance.<br /> <br /> In his remarks, President Hinckley recalled his first visit to the country in 1961 when there were just a half-dozen members of the Church. By 1966, President Keith E. Garner of the Southern Far East Mission had organized the Thailand District. President Hinckley returned in November of that year to dedicate modern Thailand for the preaching of the [[Gospel|gospel]]. [https://ldschurchtemples.org/bangkok/ He said], &quot;We went quietly in the morning into Lumpini Park, a small group of us, including Elder [[Marion D.

We prayed that the Lord would smile upon this land, that He would touch it by the power of His [[Holy Spirit]], that the way would be opened for [[Missionaries|missionaries]] to come here, that the faithful would accept the truth, and that the Lord would do a great and good work here.&quot; <br /> <br /> He continued, &quot;Now it's been a long time since I was here, and I have seen a miracle, a very real miracle.&quot; He told the members that they were pioneers of the Lord's work in their country and promised that if they were faithful, the time would come when a temple would be constructed in Thailand. &quot;The Lord expects so very, very much of you. He expects you to be the best people in all of Thailand, and you ought to be because you have a knowledge of His everlasting truth.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==Groundbreaking Ceremony for Bangkok Thailand Temple==<br /> <br /> [[Image:Bangkok-Thailand-Temple-Groundbreaking-Ceremony.jpg|400px|thumb|&lt;span style=&quot;color:#0D8ED3&quot;&gt;<br /> Bangkok Thailand Temple groundbreaking ceremony.

Elder [[Robert C. Gay]] of the [[Presidency of the Seventy]] presided in the ceremony with 700 members from the Church. Many others joined via broadcast in Church meetinghouses throughout the country. During his remarks, Elder Gay said, &quot;My heart is filled with joy and gratitude to be here today. Because of the faithfulness of the Saints in Thailand, a house of the Lord will soon be built in this country, and many will have the opportunity to participate in temple worship with their family and partake of the eternal blessings that come with it.&quot;<br /> <br /> Elder Gay was joined by Elder [[David F.

She said, &quot;We have long prayed for a temple in Thailand.

The temple gives us joy, and hope as we seek to teach our children and help them feel of God’s love for them.&quot;<br /> <br /> :Anurat Kaeocha, the temple’s construction manager, said he knew nothing of the Church of Jesus Christ before the building process began in 2019.

Hawn was not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. His settlement had a mill and a blacksmith shop, In October 1838, there were an estimated 75 families living there, although there were only perhaps a dozen or so houses.<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hawns-Mill-1989.jpg|350px|thumb|right]]<br /> <br /> On October 25, 1838, there was a battle at [[Battle of Crooked River|Crooked River]] between the members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a group of men who had been terrorizing Latter-day Saint families for days. Following this battle, [[Joseph Smith]] told members that all of the Saints should move into [[Far West]] for protection. Jacob Hawn didn’t want the potential economic loss, and evidently, he may not have passed on the warning from Joseph Smith and convinced many of the settlers to stay at Hawn’s Mill. They decided that if they were attacked, they would use the blacksmith shop as a fort. Guards were posted around the settlement to protect and watch over the area. <br /> <br /> On October 28, the Livingston County (the county in which Hawn’s Mill stood) Militia Colonel, Thomas Jennings, sent a man to arrange a peace treaty with the residents of Hawn’s Mill. Both sides agreed that they would keep the peace. The following day a group of men decided that they would attack Hawn’s Mill. During the afternoon of October 30, 240 men approached Hawn’s Mill. Joseph Young Sr. described in his journal what they had been doing that day,<br /> :The banks of Shoal Creek on either side, teemed with children sporting and playing, while their mothers were engaged in domestic employments, and their fathers employed in guarding the mill and other property, while others were engaged in gathering in their crops for their winter consumption. The weather was very pleasant, the sun shone clear, all was tranquil, and no one expressed any apprehension of the awful crisis that was near us—even at our doors (History of the Church, 3:184-85). <br /> <br /> Around 4:00 that afternoon, the 240 men arrived at Hawn’s Mill. The women and children ran to the woods to escape. One woman, [[Amanda Barnes Smith|Amanda Smith]], stated, “Yet though we were women, with tender children, in flight for our lives, the demons poured volley after volley to kill us” (Jenson, ''LDS Biographical Encyclopedia'' vol. 2). Amanda Smith was able to save her two daughters, but her ten-year-old son, who was in the blacksmith shop when the mob attacked, was killed, and her seven-year-old son (who witnessed his brother’s murder as well as his father’s), was badly wounded. <br /> <br /> [[David Evans]], who was the military leader for Hawn’s Mill, yelled for peace as the mob arrived and waved his hat in the air, but his cries were answered with rifle shots. At least 17 Saints were killed in the attack, and 13 were wounded, including Jacob Hawn. Much later, the prophet Joseph Smith said, “At Haun’s Mill, the brethren went contrary to my counsel; if they had not, their lives would have been spared” (History of the Church, 5:137).<br /> <br /> Today, Hawn’s Mill, located several miles northwest of Braymer, Missouri, is a peaceful commemorative landscape with trees and Shoal Creek on one side of a large, open field and farmland on the other. In 2012, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints purchased the land where the attack occurred. The only markers on the land are signs placed by the Community of Christ, which once owned the land. The grounds are always open.<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXcfSstRCL0&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuBH0vPSbzg&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/learn/locations/hawns-mill?lang=eng Church Historic Site, &quot;Hawn's Mill&quot;]<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/history/topics/hawns-mill-massacre?lang=eng Church History, &quot;Hawn's Mill Massacre&quot;]<br /> * [https://ensignpeakfoundation.org/hauns-mill/ Ensign Peak Foundation, &quot;Hawn's Mill, Caldwell County, Missouri&quot;]<br /> <br /> [[Category: Places of Church Interest]]<br /> [[Category: Church History: Miscellaneous Topics]]<br /> [[Category:Historical Sites]]<br /> [[es:Haun’s Mill]]<br /> [[pt:Haun's Mill]]<br /> [[ru:Бойня в Хонсмилле]]<br /> [[tl:Ang Kiskisan ng Haun]]<br /> [[it:Massacro di Haun's Mill]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Independence,_Missouri&diff=75790 Independence, Missouri 2023-08-31T18:29:15Z <p>Gboyd: </p> <hr /> <div>As persecution persisted in [[Ohio Period|Ohio]] and other areas in the East, [[Joseph Smith]] suggested that some of the Saints settle in [[Missouri Period|Missouri]]. In [[1831]], Joseph Smith received a command that they should buy as much land in the Jackson County area of Missouri as possible (see Doctrine &amp; Covenants 57:3-5, 58:37, 49-52 and 63:72). He also received the revelation that Jackson County would be the site of the [[New Jerusalem]] at the time of the [[Second Coming]]. On August 2, 1831, the land was dedicated as a place of gathering for the Saints. The next day, Joseph Smith dedicated the temple site. Settling of the wild frontier land then began. <br /> <br /> By January [[1832]], more funds were coming from other members of the Church. In the spring, another 300-400 families arrived and the area began to rapidly prosper. In June of 1832, the Church published its first periodical, the ''Evening and Morning Star''. At the time it was the only newspaper in the area, so it contained national and international news and was read by Latter-day Saints as well as nonmembers of the area. The ''Star'' also, however, printed Church news and [[revelation|revelations]] received by Joseph Smith. <br /> <br /> [[Image:temple-lot-zoomed2.jpg|300px|thumb|right|frame|Aerial view of the temple lot in Independence, Missouri]]<br /> <br /> By the end of 1832 there were over 800 Saints in Jackson County. There were, however, difficulties within the Church. Some members were not following the [[Law of Consecration|law of consecration]]; there was jealousy and other problems. The members in Jackson County were warned to repent or [[Zion]] would suffer. In July [[1833]], the peace the Saints were enjoying in Missouri ended suddenly. The first settlers of the area and other nonmembers became afraid and suspicious of the Saints. They did not like the huge influx of people moving into the area that did not hold the same political, cultural, or religious ideas as them. By this time, there were nearly twelve hundred Saints in the area. Independence also began to lose business at this time because a flood had caused the Missouri river to change its course. This was also blamed on the Mormons. <br /> <br /> On July 20, four to five hundred non–Latter-day Saint citizens met at the courthouse in Independence. They drafted a document that said that no more Mormons were going to be allowed into the area, and those that were already living there must agree to leave as soon as they could. The Church leaders of the area were surprised by the document and asked for three months to find out what the Church leaders in Ohio would advise them to do, but this request was denied. They then asked for ten days, this was also denied. They were given only fifteen minutes to decide whether or not they should agree to the terms. The non–Latter-day Saint meeting quickly turned into a mob and they destroyed the printing office and press. They destroyed copies of the [[Doctrine and Covenants|Book of Commandments]] and manuscripts. Luckily two sisters saw some of the unbound books and took as many as they could and hid with them in a cornfield. The mob then went searching for the leaders of the Church. Bishop [[Edward Partridge]] and [[Charles Allen]] were [[Tarred and Feathered|tarred and feathered]] by the mob because they would not denounce the [[Book of Mormon]].<br /> <br /> On July 23, the mob returned again this time with guns, clubs, and whips. They burned fields and haystacks, and destroyed homes. Six leaders of the Church offered their lives in exchange for the safety of the rest of the members. Their offer was turned down and they were forced to sign an agreement that they would be out of the county by April 1, [[1834]].<br /> <br /> Today Independence receives thousands of visitors who come to see the Independence Visitors' Site, which includes exhibits about the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Missouri and about Heavenly Father’s eternal plan for His children. President N. Eldon Tanner dedicated the building on May 31, 1971. <br /> <br /> Nearby is the original site that was dedicated for the construction of a temple in the center place of Zion. “And thus saith the Lord your God, if you will receive wisdom here is wisdom. Behold, the place which is now called Independence is the center place; and a spot for the temple is lying westward, upon a lot which is not far from the courthouse” [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/57?lang=eng (Doctrine &amp; Covenants 57:1–3)]. Since then, the city has expanded to include the temple lot. The courthouse mentioned in this revelation no longer exists. It was replaced in 1836 by the building now known as the Truman Courthouse. <br /> <br /> The lot and surrounding land, a total of 63.27 acres, was purchased by Bishop [[Edward Partridge]] in December 1831. However, today the [[Community of Christ]] owns most of the parcel of land, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints owns the next largest portion. The smallest portion of the land—including the spot dedicated for a temple—is owned by the Church of Christ, once known as the Church of Christ (Temple Lot). This church was founded by Granville Hedrick, a former Latter-day Saint who chose not to go to the Salt Lake Valley when the Saints left [[Nauvoo]], Illinois. Granville Hedrick and his followers returned to Independence in 1867.[https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/content/historic-sites/missouri/questions-and-answers-about-the-temple-lot-in-independence-missouri?lang=eng]<br /> <br /> The Community of Christ owns other buildings in Independence, including their temple and international headquarters, an auditorium, and a stone church. <br /> <br /> ==External Sources==<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/learn/locations/independence-visitors-center?lang=eng Church History Independence Visitors' Center]<br /> * [https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/content/historic-sites/missouri/questions-and-answers-about-the-temple-lot-in-independence-missouri?lang=eng Church History, &quot;Questions and Answers about the Temple Lot in Independence, Missouri,&quot; by Aaron L.

[[Martin's Cove]], a place of refuge against the harsh Wyoming winter for his company, was named after him. <br /> <br /> Martin was born on November 18, 1818, in Preston, England, and was baptized a member of the Church in the [[Ribble Valley|River Ribble]] by [[Orson Hyde]] on October 14, 1837. <br /> <br /> He worked as a journeyman house and interior painter in Scotland. After his marriage to Alice Clayton in March 1840, they immigrated to the United States, arriving in New Orleans before continuing on to [[Nauvoo]]. In February 1846, they left Nauvoo, where he had been ordained a [[Seventy]], and traveled to Council Bluffs, Iowa.<br /> <br /> Martin enlisted in the [[Mormon Battalion]] and served as a corporal and sergeant in Company C. He, like many others, was discharged after marching 1,500 miles to California in the war with Mexico. He walked back to Salt Lake with the Hancock, Hunt, Pace, and Lytle company but discovered that his family had not yet arrived. He consequently walked back to Council Bluffs to help them, arriving on December 10, 1847. He had walked over 6,000 miles since he left Nauvoo in February 1846. <br /> <br /> The following year, he and his family traveled to Salt Lake with the [[Heber C. Kimball]] Company and arrived on September 24, 1848. <br /> <br /> Four years later he embarked on a mission to England, serving from February 1852 to May 1856. After completing his mission, he left Liverpool on the ship Horizon, serving as captain of a company of 856 Latter-day Saints. After arriving in Boston, the company traveled by train to Iowa City, Iowa. <br /> <br /> Martin was assigned as captain of the fifth handcart company, which consisted of 575 individuals. They departed on July 28, 1856, and, as is well-known, encountered early heavy snow as they traveled through Wyoming. Approximately 100 of his company lost their lives during the journey. He had kept a detailed account of all the members of his company in a journal, but that journal was accidentally burned. <br /> <br /> After arriving in Salt Lake City, he practiced plural marriage. He worked as a painter and glazier at first and then later as a general store merchant and photographer. Most of his photographs were in the form of CdV (cartes de visite), a business card size, but he also took some panoramic views of Salt Lake Valley. “A collection now in the Church History Library contains twelve of Martin’s views of Salt Lake featuring the Lion House, the Council House, the [[Salt Lake Theatre]], the temple construction site, and homes and businesses.”[https://byustudies.byu.edu/article/an-edward-martin-photograph-of-the-construction-of-the-great-tabernacle/]<br /> <br /> Perhaps due to competition with well-known photographers such as [[Charles Roscoe Savage|Charles R.

The first Church members on Guam probably came as members of the armed forces during World War II. Guam [[Branch|branches]] of from 50 to 300 servicemen began functioning in 1944, acting under the Far East Mission. In 1945, four groups were organized on the island. On one occasion, they dedicated the graves of fallen Church servicemen.<br /> <br /> In 1951, fund-raising events by the members raised enough money to purchase land and two Quonset huts, which they used for a chapel and classrooms. The facilities were dedicated in 1953 and Guam became a dependent branch of the Oahu Hawaii [[Stake]].<br /> <br /> The first [[Missionaries|missionaries]] arrived in August 1957. As members increased, land for another meetinghouse was purchased. A new meetinghouse in Barrigada was dedicated on 10 March 1970, and the Guam Branch became a [[Ward|ward]] Open houses were frequently held, but few joined the Church. In May 1976, the Guam Ward was divided. The first Chamorro couple to join, Don Calvo and his wife, Maria, were baptized in May 1977. The Agat Branch was created in 1978. And in 1979, Herbert J. Leddy, the first [[Missionary|missionary]] of Chamorro lineage, was called to the Tennessee Nashville [[Mission]].<br /> <br /> The Micronesia Guam Mission was created on 1 April 1980.

A temple is a university for us to learn how to return to Heavenly Father.&quot; Elder [[Kazuhiko Yamashita]] asked the audience, &quot;What will you engrave in your heart today to celebrate the groundbreaking of the Yigo Temple?&quot; He continued, &quot;I engrave in my heart my commitment to serve the Lord.&quot;<br /> <br /> ==A New Temple Design==<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple is one of the smallest temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at 6,861 square feet. <br /> <br /> It is the first temple with rooms that can be converted to either become [[Sealing Power|sealing]] rooms or [[Ordinance|instruction]] rooms, depending on the needs of the church members visiting on a specific day.<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam temple has two such rooms. One is designed as a sealing room but can be converted into an instruction room. The other is an instruction room that can be converted into a sealing room, when necessary.<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple is 61 feet larger than the smallest, the [[Colonia Juarez Chihuahua Mexico Temple|Colonia Juárez Chihuahua Mexico Temple]]. But it still offers all the [[Ordinances|ordinances]], [[Covenants|covenants]], and blessings of other temples.<br /> <br /> ==Open House for the Yigo Guam Temple==<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple of [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] opened its doors to the public from Wednesday, 4 May 2022, through Saturday, 14 May 2022, with no tours held on Sunday, 8 May 2022. The media toured the temple on 2 May 2022.<br /> <br /> The temple will be dedicated on Sunday, 22 May 2022, in three sessions by Elder [[David A. Bednar]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]]. The dedicatory sessions will be held at 9 a.m., noon, and 3 p.m. A youth devotional will be held on Saturday, 21 May 2022. <br /> <br /> This is Guam’s first temple. The 6,900-square-foot temple is located on the northeastern end of Guam, a U.S. territory located in the western Pacific Ocean. The temple is located adjacent to Andersen Air Force Base, and is surrounded by lush tropical trees and includes more than 100 flowering trees and hundreds of decorative shrubs.<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple will serve 9,600 members of the Church in Guam and the islands of Micronesia.<br /> <br /> ==The Yigo Guam Tenple Is Dedicated==<br /> <br /> On Sunday, 22 May 2022, the Yigo Guam Temple was dedicated.<br /> <br /> Elder [[David A. Bednar]] of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] presided at the temple’s dedication and shared both his feelings and apostolic counsel about temples and their role in helping individuals learn about and become more like the [[Savior]].<br /> <br /> [https://www.thechurchnews.com/temples/2022-05-23/elder-bednar-dedicates-first-temple-in-guam-asking-members-to-connect-jesus-christ-with-the-temple-255177 He said], &quot;We speak much of the temple, but we should always first connect [[Jesus Christ]] with the temple.&quot;<br /> <br /> Elder Bednar was joined by his wife, Sister Susan Bednar; Elder [[Michael J. Teh|Michael John U. Teh]], a [[General Authority]] [[Seventy]], and his wife, Sister Grace Teh; and Elder [[John A. McCune]], a General Authority Seventy and [[Second Counselor|second counselor]] in the Asia North Area presidency, and his wife, Sister Debbra McCune.<br /> <br /> Elder Bednar also said, &quot;The size and architecture of the temple are interesting, but the building is not the focus. What occurs inside the temple, as we worthily receive [[Covenants|covenants]] and [[Ordinances|ordinances]], is what the temple is about.&quot; <br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple is one of the smallest built by the Church. Elder Bednar commented, &quot;But we do not have small temples. A temple is a temple. The covenants and ordinances are exactly the same in every temple, regardless of size.&quot;<br /> <br /> Comparing past temple travel to the present, Lori Boss, a member of the Barrigada Ward who served on the local temple committee, said, &quot;This may not seem like it makes a big difference to people who live far away from here. But to go all the way to Manila to get a visa is very different than it is to jump on an island hopper.&quot; She added, &quot;I think this will be a bonding moment — not only literally for families, but for the people.&quot;<br /> <br /> Elder Bednar further commented, &quot;We hope the contrast between the Spirit we feel in the temple and commotion of the world is never diminished by frequent attendance. . . .In the temple, we experience a stillness that we may not have thought could exist in mortality. Over time, we learn that stillness can be in us in any circumstance inside or outside of the temple. What we can learn over time is that we are being changed — the [[Holy Ghost]] is helping us to become men and women of [[Christ]]. . . . The purpose of the [[Gospel|gospel]] is to become like the [[Savior]]. We serve, we learn, we do what He did, and that transforms us.&quot;<br /> <br /> Barrigada Stake President Fredivic Nicerio said, &quot;The temple is a blessing that is already helping people focus on what they need to do to be an eternal family. It is a place to take refuge from the storm — whatever the storm is.&quot;<br /> <br /> The Yigo Guam Temple will serve 2,500 members in the Barrigada Guam [[Stake]] and thousands more from the surrounding islands of Micronesia. The Namoneas Chuuk [[District]] (600 miles southeast of Guam), the Panasang Pohnpei Stake (400 miles east of Chuuk) and the Kosrae Micronesia District (300 miles east of Pohnpei) are also part of the [[Temple district|temple district]].<br /> <br /> ==Videos of the Yigo Guam Temple==<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47MQU6qs4Is&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZST5WBFmXo&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOq22AoMd6o&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mM42EVJOsY&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKxPDVdDa_s&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rrNA7DrJiY&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf4BYX027j4&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkVJLbsMde8&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Inside Mormon temples|Inside Mormon Temples]]<br /> * [[Mormon temple|Mormon Temples]]<br /> * [[Temple endowment|The Temple Endowment]]<br /> * [[Mormon undergarments|Mormon Undergarments]]<br /> * [[LDS Weddings]]<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/temples/details/yigo-guam-temple?lang=eng Official Yigo Guam Temple page]<br /> * [https://churchofjesuschristtemples.org/yigo-guam-temple/ Yigo Guam Temple page]<br /> * [https://www.thechurchnews.com/temples/2022-05-20/saints-celebrate-yigo-guam-temple-elder-bednar-254950 Saints celebrate, and show gratitude for a temple in Guam through music and dance]<br /> * [https://www.thechurchnews.com/leaders-and-ministry/2022-05-23/yigo-guam-temple-youth-devotional-elder-bednar-holy-ghost-taught-a-powerful-message-255062 How the Holy Ghost taught a powerful message to youth in Guam — that they are not alone]<br /> * [https://www.thechurchnews.com/temples/2022-05-25/yigo-guam-temple-dedicatory-prayer-david-a-bednar-255109 Read Elder Bednar’s blessing upon the Saints in Guam in the dedicatory prayer of the Yigo temple]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Temples]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Emeline_Free&diff=75512 Emeline Free 2023-08-16T16:48:24Z <p>Gboyd: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Emeline_Free.jpg|200px|thumb|right]]<br /> <br /> '''Emeline Free''' was one of [[Brigham Young]]’s wives and bore him more children than his other wives—ten.

The site of the home is where the present City Creek Mall is located in downtown Salt Lake City.<br /> <br /> Emeline (sometimes spelled Emmeline) was born on April 28, 1826, in Belleville, St. Clair County, Illinois. She was born into a large deeply religious family who were taught the gospel in the summer of 1830 and were baptized in 1834. They sold their property and moved to [[Far West]]. They eventually had to leave their nice home in Far West and joined the Saints in [[Nauvoo]], where Emeline married Brigham on April 30, 1845. <br /> <br /> [[Susa Young Gates]] remembers Emeline as “beautiful as a dream, magnetic, with dark brown hair, regular features, sparkling eyes, a certain vivacity of manner which instantly won and held the pleased attention of her listeners.”[https://www.brighamyounggranddaughters.org/bygablog/2020/2/25/getting-to-know-emeline-free]<br /> <br /> She died on August 17, 1875. She had been an invalid for many years toward the end of her life and was addicted to the oft-prescribed painkiller of the time—laudanum. Part of her obituary read: “We are seldom called upon to mourn the loss of one more beautiful in character or more mature in christian faith. She was blessed by nature with a rare union of gentleness and strength, of sensitiveness and firmness, of free, joyous life and deep thoughtfulness. Her face was the true index of her heart &amp;mdash; it was marked by purity and earnestness… Her trust in God was like that of a little child… In prayer, she found both joy and strength… As a mother, her devotion was unsurpassed… Her ready sympathy and words of encouragement will long live in the hearts of those who were privileged to know her.”[https://www.brighamyounggranddaughters.org/bygablog/2020/2/25/getting-to-know-emeline-free]<br /> <br /> ==External Sources==<br /> * [https://www.brighamyounggranddaughters.org/bygablog/2020/2/25/getting-to-know-emeline-free Brigham Young Granddaughters Association, “Getting to Know: Emeline Free”]<br /> * [https://www.yearofpolygamy.com/year-of-polygamy/year-of-polygamy-emmeline-free-brighams-abandoned-pet-episode-55/ Year of Polygamy, “Episode 55: Emmeline Free—Brigham’s “Abandoned Pet”]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Women in Mormonism]]<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Free, Emeline}}</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Zina_Young_Williams_Card&diff=75257 Zina Young Williams Card 2023-08-08T17:53:16Z <p>Gboyd: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Zina_Young_Card.jpg|300px|thumb|right]]<br /> <br /> '''Zina Presendia Young Williams Card''' was the second in a line of three notable women named Zina.

Joseph moved his family to the state of New York, when Newel was nine years of age, and settled on the Susquehanna River, near the town of Bainbridge, and stayed there two years. He then moved down the river six miles into Broome County, town of Colesville, where he stayed for nineteen years. <br /> <br /> Joseph Knight owned a farm, a gristmill, and a carding machine and hired men to work for him. In this manner, Newel met one of the day laborers, [[Joseph Smith]], in 1826 and Newel became attached to him. Newel said Joseph’s “noble deportment, his faithfulness and his kind address, could not fail to win the esteem of those who had the pleasure of his acquaintance.”[https://doctrineandcovenantscentral.org/history/newel-knight/] <br /> <br /> In 1825, Newel married Sarah Coburn. The first years of their marriage were difficult&amp;emdash;Sarah’s health was delicate and their first child died at birth. His own health was challenged in his grist mill business and he was diagnosed with consumption. Newel and Sarah moved back to Colesville. <br /> <br /> :My oldest brother, Nahum, was married, and lived close at hand; also my sisters Esther and Anna, with their husbands William Stringham, and Freeborn Demill, so that I was happy, not only in the society of my father’s immediate family, but also of many relatives who lived in the same vicinity. Peace, prosperity and plenty, seemed to crown our labors, and indeed we were a happy family, and my father rejoiced in having us around him.<br /> <br /> :During this time we were frequently visited by my young friend, Joseph Smith, who would entertain us with accounts of the wonderful things which had happened to him. It was evident to me that great things were about to be accomplished through him&amp;emdash;that the Lord was about to use him as an instrument in His hands to bring to pass the great and mighty work of the last days. This chosen instrument told us of God’s manifestations to him, of the discovery and receiving of the plates from which the Book of Mormon was translated, of his persecutions for the gospel’s sake, and many other items of his eventful life.<br /> <br /> Before his baptism, Newel had a unique experience with the Prophet.<br /> <br /> :One day, Joseph invited him to pray at a meeting, but Newel said he would rather pray alone in the woods.<br /> <br /> :The next morning, Newel went to the woods and tried to pray. An uneasy feeling came over him, and it grew worse as he started for home. By the time he reached his house, the feeling was so oppressive that he begged his wife, Sally, to get the prophet.<br /> <br /> :Joseph hurried to Newel’s side and found family members and neighbors watching fearfully as the young man’s face, arms, and legs contorted wildly. When Newel saw Joseph, he cried, “Cast the devil out!”<br /> <br /> :Joseph had never tried to rebuke the devil or heal someone before, but he knew Jesus had promised His disciples the power to do so. Acting quickly, he caught Newel by the hand. “In the name of Jesus Christ,” he said, “depart from him.”<br /> <br /> :As soon as Joseph spoke, the contortions stopped. Newel slumped to the floor, exhausted but unharmed, muttering that he had seen the devil leave his body.<br /> <br /> :The Knights and their neighbors were astonished by what Joseph had done. Helping them carry Newel to a bed, Joseph told them it was the first miracle performed in the church.<br /> <br /> :“It was done by God,” he testified, “and by the power of godliness.”<br /> <br /> In May 1830, Knight was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Seneca County, New York, by [[David Whitmer]]. <br /> <br /> He was the president of the branch of the Church in Colesville, New York, and between April and July of 1831, he led the branch in relocating from Broome County, New York, to Jackson County, Missouri (see [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/52?lang=eng Doctrine and Covenants 52:32]; [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/56?lang=eng 56:6–7]). He was the recipient of an early revelation ([https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/54?lang=eng Doctrine and Covenants 54]) while he was serving as a leader of these Saints. <br /> <br /> In November 1833, he and other Latter-day Saints were expelled from Jackson County and resettled in Clay County, Missouri. In July 1834, he was appointed to the Zion high council there. <br /> <br /> After the death of his first wife in September 1834, he married Lydia Goldthwaite Bailey in November 1835. During 1837 and 1838, he served on the Zion high council in Far West, Missouri. In 1839 he moved to Commerce, Illinois, which was later renamed [[Nauvoo]], where he served on the high council until 1845. He left Nauvoo in 1846 and died the following year in Nebraska.<br /> <br /> His wife Lydia wrote:<br /> <br /> :“On Monday morning, January 4th, 1847, Brother Knight, whose health had been failing for some time, did not arise as usual, and, on my going to him, he said, “Lydia, I believe I shall go to rest this winter.” The next night he awoke with a severe pain in his right side, a fever had also set in, and he expressed himself to me that he did not expect to recover. From this time until the 10th of the month, the Elders came frequently and prayed for my husband. After each administration he would rally and be at ease for a short time and then relapse again into suffering. I felt at last as if I could not endure his sufferings any longer, and that I ought not to hold him here. I knelt by his bedside, and with my hand upon his pale forehead asked my Heavenly Father to forgive my sins, and that the sufferings of my companion might cease, and if he was appointed unto death, and could not remain with us, that he might be quickly eased from pain and fall asleep in peace. Almost immediately all pain left him, and in a short time he sweetly fell asleep in death, without a struggle or a groan, at half past six on the morning of the 11th of January, 1847. His remains were interred at sunset on the evening of the day he died.”[https://doctrineandcovenantscentral.org/history/newel-knight/]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Mormon Life and Culture]][[Category:Church History: Miscellaneous Topics]]<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Knight, Newel}}</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Mary_Ann_Angell&diff=74825 Mary Ann Angell 2023-07-19T17:23:35Z <p>Gboyd: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:mary-ann-angell-young.jpg|300px|thumb|right|alt=Mormon Mary Ann Angell Young]]<br /> <br /> '''Mary Ann Angell Young''' was the second wife of [[Brigham Young]]. They were married in 1834. President Young's first wife, [[Miriam Works Young|Miriam Angeline Works]], had died in 1832. <br /> <br /> Mary Ann was born on June 8, 1803, to James and Phoebe Morton Angell in Ontario County, New York. The family moved to Providence, Rhode Island, when she was young. Her mother left her abusive husband in 1831 and moved with her two children to China, New York. A year after their move, Mary Ann's brother [[Truman O. Angell|Truman]] joined [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints] and she was baptized soon after. <br /> <br /> :Mary Ann had always been deeply religious. She was keen on studying Hebrew and Christian scripture. “She vowed never to marry until she met a ‘man of God’ in whom she could confide her spirituality and with whom her heart could unite in the active duties of a Christian life.”<br /> <br /> :She set off alone for Kirtland, Ohio to gather with the Saints in 1832. In 1833, she met a young widower, Brigham Young. She “felt drawn to him” as she listened to him preach. He, likewise, was impressed with her as he heard her bear testimony.[https://www.brighamyounggranddaughters.org/bygablog/maryannangell] <br /> <br /> They married on February 18, 1834, and Brigham said of her, she “took charge of my children, kept my house, and labored faithfully for the interest of my family and the kingdom.” Brigham was often gone on missions and she was left home alone &quot;to support herself and their growing family. She would work in the home as well as out in the fields to earn a living and put food on the table.&quot;[https://www.brighamyounggranddaughters.org/bygablog/maryannangell] The Prophet [[Joseph Smith|Joseph]] received a revelation in 1838 that Brigham would not be required to leave his family again, “until they are amply provided for.”[https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/revelations-in-context/take-special-care-of-your-family?lang=eng]<br /> <br /> But in September 1839, Brigham was called on a mission to England. He was suffering from malaria but was determined to go to England. Although Mary Ann had given birth to her fifth child ten days earlier, and they were all so sick that they could not &quot;wait upon each other,&quot; she crossed the river from Iowa to Illinois so she could bid her husband a final farewell. Brigham and Heber C. Kimball feebly stood in the wagon in which they were riding and shouted &quot;Hurrah for Israel&quot; in an attempt to cheer her and others they were leaving behind.[https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/revelations-in-context/take-special-care-of-your-family?lang=eng]<br /> <br /> :Two months after Brigham’s departure, the family ran out of food. Still suffering the effects of malaria, Mary Ann was forced to take action to relieve their hunger. On a “cold, stormy November day,” she wrapped herself and her baby Alice in tattered blankets and set off in a small rowboat across the Mississippi River. During the journey, the wind-whipped waves soaked both her and her baby. Upon reaching Nauvoo, she went to the home of a friend, who later recounted, “Sister Young came into my house … with her baby Alice in her arms, almost fainting with cold and hunger, and dripping wet.” Mary Ann refused her friend’s offer to let her stay. “The children at home are hungry, too,” she insisted. Procuring “a few potatoes and a little flour,” Mary Ann “wended her way to the river bank” to row home. Many times she crossed the river “to obtain the barest necessaries of life,” sometimes “in storms that would have frightened women of ordinary courage.”<br /> <br /> :Around this time, Mary Ann was forced out of her room in the old military barracks. She took up residence in a horse stable in Montrose and spent the winter eking out a meager living “sowing [sewing] &amp; washing” for others. The following spring she was given a lot in Nauvoo, on which she planted a garden. Throughout that summer, Mary Ann paddled across the Mississippi River to care for her garden and then paddled “back again at night after her days work was done.”<br /> <br /> :In addition to working in her garden, Mary Ann undertook to build a log cabin on the lot. In September 1840, a year after Brigham left on his mission, she moved her family into their new home in Nauvoo. Vilate Kimball noted that the house “could hardly be called a shelter,” but at least it saved her constant trips across the river. Her nephew later recalled that it was simply the “body of a house,” with blankets hung over the doors and windows to keep out the elements.[https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/revelations-in-context/take-special-care-of-your-family?lang=eng]<br /> <br /> When Brigham returned to Nauvoo on July 1, 1841, he set to work to improve his family's situation.

He was the only son of [[Brigham Young]] and [[Clarissa Ross Young]]. His mother died when he was six years old. He attended the [[Deseret University]]. Because he was an excellent scholar, [[John R. Park]], president of the university, named him as the candidate to attend the United States Military Academy at West Point. His father let him accept the appointment only if he went as a missionary, and he was set apart to this mission. <br /> <br /> He graduated from West Point in 1875 and was appointed a second lieutenant with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. While working for the Corps of Engineers, Young was involved in making detailed maps of northern Utah and southern Idaho. <br /> <br /> His first assignment was at Willets Point, New York, from 1875 to 1877. From 1877 to 1879, he worked in the geographical survey of the United States west of the 100th meridian. He then became an instructor and later a professor at West Point, where he taught until 1883. In 1886, he was advanced to the rank of captain.<br /> <br /> Young was the local supervisor in the construction of the Cascade Locks in Oregon. From October 1889 to June 1890, he was stationed in Memphis, Tennessee, supervising the Third District of the Mississippi River. He resigned from the Army in 1891. <br /> <br /> From 1891 to 1893, he was president of the Salt Lake City–based Young University. After it ceased operation in 1894, he became city engineer in Salt Lake City and then was appointed Utah’s first state engineer. At the start of the Spanish-American War, he was appointed brigadier-general of the Utah National Guard.<br /> <br /> He served as colonel of the Second Regiment of U.S. Volunteer Engineers from May 1898 to May 1899. <br /> <br /> From 1899 to 1902, he went to New York City as general manager of the National Contracting Company, and later became president. Some of what he oversaw was some of the works of the Niagra Falls Power Company, New Orleans main drainage works, several tunnels for the Boston Subway, a sewer system for Boston, and a dam for the Hudson River Power Company.<br /> <br /> Young was president of [[Ensign College|LDS Business College]] from 1906 to 1915. <br /> <br /> He joined the army again when World War I broke out and was appointed U.S. Agent in charge of all Army engineering work on the Missouri River (1917–1919).

The term &quot;Mormon Polygamy&quot; is incorrect, as anyone who follows this practice in our day is not a member of the Church but belongs instead to some [[Fundamentalists|fundamentalist]] or other religious denomination. [[Gordon B. Hinckley]], 15th Prophet and President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, stated the following about [[polygamy]] in the Church's General Conference of October 1998:<br /> <br /> &lt;blockquote&gt;I wish to state categorically that this Church has nothing whatever to do with those practicing polygamy. They are not members of this Church. Most of them have never been members. They are in violation of the civil law. They know they are in violation of the law. They are subject to its penalties. The Church, of course, has no jurisdiction whatever in this matter.&lt;/blockquote&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;blockquote&gt;If any of our members are found to be practicing plural marriage, they are excommunicated, the most serious penalty the Church can impose. Not only are those so involved in direct violation of the civil law, they are in violation of the law of this Church. An article of our faith is binding upon us. It states, 'We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law' ([[Articles of Faith]] 1:12). One cannot obey the law and disobey the law at the same time.&lt;/blockquote&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;blockquote&gt;There is no such thing as a 'Mormon Fundamentalist.' It is a contradiction to use the two words together.&lt;/blockquote&gt;<br /> <br /> Polygamy, usually called plurality of wives, or the &quot;Principle,&quot; by Latter-day Saints, sometimes incorrectly called [[Mormons]], was once commanded of the Lord for a very specific purpose at a critical time in history, and the law was divinely repealed in 1890. The term ''polygamy'' is actually a widely used misnomer, as Church members actually practiced ''polygyny,'' a type of marital relationship where one man marries multiple women. This practice led to severe persecution and repression of members of the Church by the United States Government in the latter half of the nineteenth century, and the abandonment of polygamy became a condition for Utah statehood. Many misunderstandings, misconceptions, half-truths, and outright lies have attended discussions of [http://www.mormon-polygamy.net/ Mormon polygamy] among the members of the Church of Jesus Christ and are still fostered among individuals against the Church (sometimes called anti-Mormons) and former members of the Church of Jesus Christ sometimes referred to as ex-Mormons) who attempt to attack the Church and its teachings. This article will address the history of polygamy among members of the Church and the official teachings of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints about polygamy.<br /> <br /> ===Marriage as the Lord Decrees===<br /> <br /> Since the beginning of recorded history, God has sometimes commanded His people to practice polygamy, and sometimes forbid it, but when He does command it, the purpose is to raise righteous children unto the Lord. This corresponds precisely to what [[Joseph Smith]] and [[Brigham Young]] taught:<br /> <br /> *: [...] I have constantly said no man shall have but one wife at a time, &lt;b&gt;unless the Lord directs otherwise&lt;/b&gt;. (''Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith,'' page 324.)<br /> <br /> *:God never introduced the Patriarchal order of marriage with a view to please man in his carnal desires, nor to punish females for anything which they had done; but &lt;b&gt;He introduced it for the express purpose of raising up to His name a royal Priesthood&lt;/b&gt;, a peculiar people. (Brigham Young, ''Journal of Discourses'' 3:264)<br /> <br /> *:This revelation, which God gave to Joseph, was &lt;b&gt;for the express purpose of providing a channel for the organization of tabernacles [i.e., bodies]&lt;/b&gt;, for those spirits to occupy who have been reserved to come forth in the kingdom of God, and that they might not be obliged to take tabernacles out of the kingdom of God. (Brigham Young, ''Journal of Discourses'' 3:265)<br /> <br /> ===Joseph Smith and Polygamy===<br /> :&lt;i&gt;see also the [[Ohio Period|Mormon history]] article covering this time period.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> In 1831, one year after the founding of the Church, as Joseph Smith was working on a translation of the Bible, he appealed to the Lord about some questions raised as he read the scriptures. According to [http://scriptures.lds.org/dc/132 the revelation] given to Joseph Smith, but not written down until July 12, [[1843]], Joseph Smith approached the Lord and asked Him why he permitted ancient prophets like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to have multiple wives. The revelation states that only God can command men to practice polygamy and that he appoints a prophet to be in charge of it when he does. <br /> <br /> Joseph Smith was hesitant to teach this new principle and did not even share it with his closest associates for many years. According to later statements by [[Lorenzo Snow]], and [[Brigham Young]], Joseph was himself repelled by the idea, and not until an angel of Lord appeared to him and ordered him to practice it and teach it, did he begin. This apparently took place sometime after [[1839]], when the members of the Church had been driven to [[Nauvoo and the Martyrdom|Nauvoo, Illinois]]. When Brigham Young learned about it he said:<br /> <br /> : Some of these my brethren know what my feelings were at the time Joseph revealed the doctrine; I was not desirous of shrinking from any duty, nor of failing in the least to do as I was commanded, but it was the first time in my life that I had desired the grave, and I could hardly get over it for a long time. And when I saw a funeral, I felt to envy the corpse its situation, and to regret that I was not in the coffin, knowing the toil and labor that my body would have to undergo; and I have had to examine myself, from that day to this, and watch my faith, and carefully meditate, lest I should be found desiring the grave more than I ought to do (Brigham Young, ''Journal of Discourses'' 3:266).<br /> <br /> It is not clear exactly how many women Joseph Smith married, but it is apparent that Joseph Smith did not ever live with any of these other wives. Teachings in the Church of Jesus Christ on [[Celestial marriage|marriage]], which Joseph Smith had begun teaching in Nauvoo, taught that men and women could be married for all eternity, not just in this life. Marriage was for &quot;time and all eternity.&quot; &lt;i&gt;Time&lt;/i&gt; referred to this mortal life while &lt;i&gt;eternity&lt;/i&gt; referred to the next life. Hence, according to Joseph Smith marriages could be just for this life, for this life and the next, or just for the next life. <br /> <br /> This last category has caused much confusion and led to many attacks on the characters of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. For persons whose spouses were not members of the Church and thus could not be married for “time and all eternity” to that spouse, early Church practice allowed the person to be &lt;i&gt;sealed&lt;/i&gt;, a word referring to [[Mormon temple|temple]] marriage for all eternity, to one person, but married for time to another. Thus, the person would continue to live with one spouse in this life, but have the blessings of eternal marriage, called [[celestial marriage]], with another. Many of Joseph Smith’s and Brigham Young’s wives were of this sort. They never lived with these wives or had sexual relations with them. <br /> <br /> Women tend to be more intuitive than men, so most religions or spiritual movements have won more female adherents than male. Likewise, in the early days of the Church, there were more female converts than male. [http://mormon-polygamy.org/ Polygamy] enabled these women to have financial support, as those leaders able to support more than one wife stepped up and accepted that burden.<br /> <br /> ===The Nauvoo Period===<br /> In Nauvoo, Joseph Smith began teaching plural marriage or polygamy to his closest and most trusted associates. Nearly 100 people were taught about it before [[Martyrdom of Joseph Smith|Joseph Smith’s martyrdom]]. A few began this practice before the exodus of [[1846]], but it remained in hiatus until the Latter-day Saints were established in Utah.<br /> <br /> During this time, some close associates took advantage of this situation. John C. Bennett, a friend of Joseph Smith and mayor of Nauvoo, perverted these teachings to gratify his own lust. He told single and married women that Joseph was teaching &quot;spiritual wifery,&quot; as he called it, which he claimed gave them permission to sleep with whomever they desired. Bennett was eventually caught. He confessed that Joseph Smith had never taught &quot;spiritual wifery,&quot; which amounted to adultery, and was soon excommunicated. He left Nauvoo and began publishing scathing attacks on Joseph Smith. Another close associate, William Law, pleaded with Joseph Smith to renounce polygamy. When he would not, Law and a few other disaffected members of the Church published the &lt;i&gt;[[Nauvoo Expositor]]&lt;/i&gt; which claimed Joseph Smith was teaching adultery and fornication and called for him to be hung. The Nauvoo City Council decided this was a public nuisance and so destroyed the press. Riots followed and Joseph Smith was arrested, imprisoned in [[Carthage Jail]], and there murdered on June 27, [[1844]].<br /> <br /> ==Polygamy in Utah==<br /> :&lt;i&gt;see also the articles on [[Mormon history]] covering this period.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Polygamy Publicly Announced===<br /> [[Image:Brigham_Young.jpg|alt=Brigham Young Mormon polygamy|thumb|right|250px|frame|Brigham Young]]Members of the Church of Jesus Christ were driven out of Illinois in [[1846]]. Once established in Utah, [[Brigham Young]] directed Orson Pratt of the [[Quorum of the Twelve Apostles]] to announce the practice publicly. He did so on August 29, 1852. In this speech and others that followed, he set forth the Church’s explanation and defense of polygamy. He claimed first that God had commanded it. Secondly, the reason God commanded it was so that Latter-day Saints could raise righteous children. Lastly he noted that God only permitted His prophets to direct who will practice polygamy. As evidence, he cited the story of the Prophet Nathan and King David, where Nathan explains that he gave David his wives from a commandment of God (See [http://scriptures.lds.org/2_sam/12 2 Samuel 12:1-9]). <br /> <br /> The practice continued in Utah until [[1890]], when a revelation came from the Lord forbidding further polygamous marriages. At first, being isolated in Utah, the Church of Jesus Christ practiced it openly and without harassment. In the 1850s the newly formed Republican Party made part of its platform the abolishment of polygamy. Distracted by the Civil War and the abolishment of slavery, little happened at first, though the issue of polygamy was part of the justification for the [[Utah War]]. President Buchanan sent 5,000 troops to crush a non-existent rebellion in the territory in [[1857]].<br /> <br /> ===Anti-Polygamy Legislation and Raids===<br /> Beginning in [[1862]], the U.S. Congress passed a series of increasingly stringent laws outlawing polygamy. The first, the Morrill Anti-Bigamy Act, passed on July 1, [[1862]], outlawed polygamy. Bigamy was difficult to prove, as records were scanty, and while some Church leaders including Brigham Young were arrested, they were generally released. [[George Reynolds]], Young’s secretary and a British immigrant, was arrested and tried. He appealed the case to the United States Supreme Court arguing that polygamy was protected by the U.S. Bill of Rights, which guaranteed free exercise of religion. In ruling on &lt;i&gt;Reynolds v. United States&lt;/i&gt;, the Court said that this clause protected beliefs only and that Congress could pass laws preventing practices “which were in violation of social duties or subversive of good order” (98 U.S. 164). Reynolds was sentenced to five years of jail time.<br /> <br /> Sir Richard Burton, the famous explorer and orientalist, actually defended both the members of the Church and their practice of polygamy in his book, &lt;i&gt;The City of the Saints and across the Rocky Mountains to California&lt;/i&gt;. He said:<br /> <br /> :Those individuals who have the strength of mind sufficient to divest themselves entirely from the influence of custom, and examine the doctrine of a plurality of wives under the light of reason and revelation, will be forced to the conclusion that it is a doctrine of divine origin; that it was embraced and practiced under the divine sanction by the most righteous men who ever lived on the earth: holy prophets and patriarchs, who were inspired by the Holy Ghost (p 382).<br /> <br /> Burton also defended the members of the Church of Jesus Christ against their legal persecutors. He argued that the Constitution of the United States should protect this practice:<br /> <br /> :The Constitution and laws of the United States, being founded upon the principles of freedom, do not interfere with marriage relations, but leave the nation free to believe in and practice the doctrine of a plurality of wives, or to confine themselves to the one-wife system, just as the choose. This is as it should be (p 379).<br /> <br /> ===The True Nature of Polygamy in Utah===<br /> The raids and attacks of the 1880s make it appear that all members of the Church of Jesus Christ were living in polygamy. Though records are not always clear, their clarity deliberately obscured to prevent government officers from easily finding polygamists, it is clear that only a minority ever practiced polygamy. Estimates are that at maximum 20 to 25 percent of the Church at any given time was practicing it; some estimates place it as low as 5 percent. Approximately one third of women in the 1880s lived in polygamous families. The 1,300 men arrested is certainly a small percentage of the nearly 150,000 members of the Church at the time and that number approached 200,000 by [[1890]]. Some people, anti-Mormons and even some members of the Church, have tried to claim that Church prophets of the nineteenth century said that every man must practice polygamy to get into heaven, but this is a distortion of the truth. In [[1866]], [[John Taylor]], who succeeded Brigham Young as [[Mormon president|President of the Church]] said:<br /> <br /> : When this system was first introduced among this people, it was one of the greatest crosses that ever was taken up by any set of men since the world stood. Joseph Smith told others; he told me, and I can bear witness of it, &quot;that if this principle was not introduced, this Church and kingdom could not proceed.&quot; When this commandment was given, it was so far religious, and so far binding upon the Elders of this Church, that it was told them &lt;b&gt;if they were not prepared to enter into it&lt;/b&gt;, and to stem the torrent of opposition that would come in consequence of it, the keys of the kingdom would be taken from them. When I see any of our people, men or women, opposing a principle of this kind, I have years ago set them down as on the high road to apostasy, and I do to-day; I consider them apostates, and not interested in this Church and kingdom (John Taylor, ''Journal of Discourses'' 11:221).<br /> <br /> Here he clearly says that it is the principle that must be accepted, just as men are expected to accept every principle and revelation from God. He says men must be ‘prepared’ to enter into it and defend it, even though they may not be required to do so. If one considers that when he said that the majority of those listening were not practicing polygamy and were never asked to do so, it becomes clear that they understood this to mean that they must accept the principle as a revelation from God in order to enter heaven, since Jesus taught that man must live on “every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4). <br /> <br /> For members of the Church of Jesus Christ who practiced polygamy, it brought both blessings and trials to be overcome. Latter-day Saint women were generally in favor of polygamy, feeling not only that it came from God, but also that it liberated them to do much more with their time. Many Latter-day Saint women, with other wives to share the work, went to school and became very accomplished. Anti-Mormon leaders in Utah gave women the right to vote in 1870 hoping that these supposedly oppressed women would vote for anti-Mormon candidates, but the measure backfired. Latter-day Saint women under polygamy had much more freedom to pursue vocations and education. Three of Brigham Young’s wives studied medicine and helped found a hospital. <br /> <br /> [[Joseph Fielding Smith]], who was an apostle and later [[Mormon president|President of the Church]] grew up in a polygamous family. Of this situation he said: &quot;[My father [[Joseph F. Smith]]] had five wives and 43 children. No father ever at any age of the world, we feel confident in saying, had a greater love for wife or wives and children, and was more earnestly concerned for their welfare than was [my father]&quot; (Joseph Fielding Smith, ''Life of Joseph F. Smith,'' p. 449). He says further of the wives and children in this family:<br /> <br /> :[T]here was and is no monogamist family which could be more united. To the astonishment of the unbelieving world, the wives loved each other dearly. In times of sickness they tenderly waited upon and nursed each other. When death invaded one of the homes and a child was taken, all wept and mourned together with sincere grief which was wonderful to see. Two of the wives were skilled and licensed practitioners in obstetrics, and brought many babies into the world. They waited upon each other and upon the other wives, and when babies came all rejoiced equally with the mother. <br /> <br /> :The children recognized each other as brothers and sisters, full-fledged, not as half, as they would be considered in the world. They defended each and stood by each other no matter which branch of the family was theirs (''Life of Joseph F. Smith,'' p. 449).<br /> <br /> Smith concludes that the reasons the outside world viewed polygamy with such horror and disgust was that they &quot;judged the 'Mormon' people by their own corrupt standards that they failed to understand the true condition which prevailed in 'Mormon' homes&quot; (''Life of Joseph F. Smith,'' p. 449).<br /> <br /> ===Polygamy Discontinued===<br /> In [[1887]], the Congress passed the Edmunds-Tucker Act which disincorporated the Church and seized virtually all of its property, except the temples and some church buildings. The Church appealed this ruling, again citing the freedom of religion, but in [[1890]] in &lt;i&gt;The Late Corporation of the Mormon Church v. United States&lt;/i&gt; the Supreme Court again upheld the ban on polygamy. <br /> <br /> Facing the utter destruction of the Church, [[Wilford Woodruff]], the forth president of the Church met and prayed with the other apostles. After much prayer, President Woodruff saw a vision of what would happen if the Church continued to practice polygamy. He saw the destruction of the Church, the scattering of the members, and the cessation of all their work. The Lord had previously shown that sometimes he commands men to practice polygamy and sometimes he forbids it, depending upon the circumstance. Wilford Woodruff then realized that the time had come to stop practicing polygamy. He issued what has become known as the [[Manifesto]]. It said that the Church of Jesus Christ would no longer contract marriages forbidden by law. President Grover Cleveland would later pardon all those who entered polygamous marriages before [[1890]]. Utah, Idaho, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona were required to ban polygamy in their constitutions. Idaho's laws originally kept all polygamists from holding office, and for a time Idaho banned all persons married in Church temples from voting or holding office. <br /> <br /> Anti-Mormons try to claim that Wilford Woodruff caved under pressure, but according to [[Gordon B. Hinckley]], former president of the Church of Jesus Christ, the role of the [[Mormon president|Prophet]] is to find answers to the problems of God’s people by asking God in prayer. President Woodruff sought help from God and God gave it. Wilford Woodruff himself in speaking about this revelation said:<br /> <br /> :I have had some revelations of late, and very important ones to me, and I will tell you what the Lord has said to me. Let me bring your minds to what is termed the manifesto . . .<br /> <br /> :The Lord has told me to ask the Latter-day Saints a question, and He also told me that if they would listen to what I said to them and answer the question put to them, by the Spirit and power of God, they would all answer alike, and they would all believe alike with regard to this matter.<br /> <br /> :The question is this: Which is the wisest course for the Latter-day Saints to pursue—to continue to attempt to practice plural marriage, with the laws of the nation against it and the opposition of sixty millions of people, and at the cost of the confiscation and loss of all the Temples, and the stopping of all the ordinances therein, both for the living and the dead, and the imprisonment of the First Presidency and Twelve and the heads of families in the Church, and the confiscation of personal property of the people (all of which of themselves would stop the practice); or, after doing and suffering what we have through our adherence to this principle to cease the practice and submit to the law, and through doing so leave the Prophets, Apostles and fathers at home, so that they can instruct the people and attend to the duties of the Church, and also leave the Temples in the hands of the Saints, so that they can attend to the ordinances of the Gospel, both for the living and the dead?<br /> <br /> :&lt;b&gt;The Lord showed me by vision and revelation exactly what would take place if we did not stop this practice&lt;/b&gt;. If we had not stopped it, you would have had no use for...any of the men in this temple at Logan; for all ordinances would be stopped throughout the land of Zion. Confusion would reign throughout Israel, and many men would be made prisoners. This trouble would have come upon the whole Church, and we should have been compelled to stop the practice. Now, the question is, whether it should be stopped in this manner, or in the way the Lord has manifested to us, and leave our Prophets and Apostles and fathers free men, and the temples in the hands of the people, so that the dead may be redeemed. A large number has already been delivered from the prison house in the [[Spirit World|spirit world]] by this people, and shall the work go on or stop? This is the question I lay before the Latter-day Saints. You have to judge for yourselves. I want you to answer it for yourselves. I shall not answer it; but I say to you that that is exactly the condition we as a people would have been in had we not taken the course we have.<br /> <br /> :. . . I saw exactly what would come to pass if there was not something done. I have had this spirit upon me for a long time. But I want to say this: I should have let all the temples go out of our hands; '''I should have gone to prison myself, and let every other man go there, had not the God of heaven commanded me to do what I did do'''; and when the hour came that I was commanded to do that, it was all clear to me. I went before the Lord, and I wrote what the Lord told me to write... (Doctrine and Covenants, excerpts attached to Official Declaration 1).<br /> <br /> ==Since the Manifesto==<br /> <br /> Groups today that practice polygamy, and call themselves &quot;Fundamentalist Mormons,&quot; are not affiliated with [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]]. Most of their members have never been members of the Church of Jesus Christ, and their actions are considered illegal. These groups often withdraw into isolated communities and seldom gain new converts. This leads to intermarrying of close relatives and has caused heightened birth defects among these groups.[http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,635182923,00.html] These groups often require all men to enter polygamy, which causes many problems and has led to an excess of single men unable to marry. These men are often expelled from the group and cut off from their families. Other abuses often occur in these isolated communities such as forced marriages, which did not occur among nineteenth-century members of the Church. Polygamy as practiced by these groups is very different from the historical practice of polygamy by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which never required all men to practice polygamy and never withdrew into secretive communes cut off from the rest of the world. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the nineteenth century never forced young girls into marriage or expelled those who would not enter into polygamous marriages. Women also historically had access to divorce, and could freely leave marriages that dissatisfied them. The practices of contemporary polygamous sects should never be confused with nineteenth century Latter-day Saint practice.<br /> <br /> One polygamist sect has been in the news repeatedly, because its supposed prophet, [[Warren Jeffs]], was arrested for arranging a forced marriage of an underage girl. His sect is called The [[Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (FLDS)]], and they call themselves &quot;Mormon.&quot; Jeffs was convicted of accessory to rape. During his incarceration, he claimed not to be a prophet. [http://www.deseretnews.com/article/660206525/A-prophet-no-more-Jeffs-called-himself-a-sinner-in-jailhouse-conversation.html] On November 20, 2007, he was sentenced to imprisonment for 10 years to life and began serving his sentence at the Utah State Prison. Jeffs' conviction was reversed by Utah's Supreme Court on July 27, 2010 because of incorrect jury instructions. He has since been extradited to Texas, where he was convicted of charges of bigamy and sexual assault in connection with a raid on a West Texas ranch in 2008. [http://clipsyndicate.com/video/playlist/20010/2329342?wpid=9604] In 2011, ''in absentium'' Jeffs banished a number of men from their marriages and from the Colorado compound, and rumors of rebellion hit the news. In the past, unscrupulous means have been employed to gain control of these apostate groups, with contention between powerful men for control.<br /> <br /> In contrast is the true kingdom of God on earth, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, with a membership of over 16,000,000 (as of December 2017), is the most loving organization in the world. There is no lobbying or contending for leadership of the Church, and no elections, either. Leaders are chosen through revelation from God. Members of the Church are neither reclusive nor secretive. They are good citizens in whatever area they reside, and shine forth for their talent, education, and participation in society.<br /> <br /> ==Videos about Polygamy==<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;www.youtube.com/watch?&amp;v=eITMOB2pNYI&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;www.youtube.com/watch?&amp;v=53PTXntgmIw&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> == External Links ==<br /> *[https://thirdhour.org/blog/faith/lds-history/top-questions-regarding-polygamy/ Top Ten Questions about Mormon Polygamy]<br /> *[https://www.lds.org/topics/plural-marriage-in-the-church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter-day-saints?lang=eng Official church essay on plural marriage]<br /> *[https://www.lds.org/topics/plural-marriage-in-kirtland-and-nauvoo?lang=eng Official church essay on polygamy in Kirtland and Nauvoo]<br /> *[https://www.lds.org/topics/plural-marriage-and-families-in-early-utah?lang=eng Official church essay on polygamy in Utah]<br /> *[http://www.lds.org/topics/plural-marriage-and-families-in-early-utah?lang=eng 2013 Official Church Statement on Polygamy]<br /> *[http://www.ldsliving.com/story/74595-how-the-churchs-new-article-on-polygamy-will-increase-lds-confidence An analysis of the statement]<br /> *[http://www.mormonsandpolygamy.org/ The Mormon Church's official website regarding polygamy]<br /> *Other relevant sites: [http://polygamy.lds.org] [http://www.mormon-polygamy.org/]<br /> *[http://www.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/media/mediaplayer.swf?media=http://broadcast.lds.org/newsroom/video/flv/24June07_Bro_Peterson_4_Newsroom.flv&amp;type=FLV A series of videotaped interviews with Texans to show how the Mormon Church differs from polygamist groups]<br /> *[http://youtube.com/watch?v=9OqdOM9udv4 Video:Mike Otterson, Church Public Affairs on Texas sect]<br /> *[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUtjsdtDOkQ Video:Mike Otterson:Polygamist sect has nothing to do with the Mormon Church] <br /> *[http://newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/news-releases-stories/video-challenges-public-misperceptions-explains-myths-vs-reality Steve Young and Sharlene Hawkes address misconceptions about polygamy and the Church]<br /> *[http://newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/commentary/publicizing-good-works LDS Newsroom:Mormons and Polygamy]<br /> *[http://www.mormonfaq.com Answers to challenging questions about the Mormon Church]<br /> *[http://www.historyofmormonism.com Personal accounts from pioneer journals regarding polygamy]<br /> <br /> [[es:Poligamia]]<br /> [[fr:Mariage plural]]<br /> [[ru:Многоженство]]<br /> [[pt:Poligamia]]<br /> [[de:Vielehe]]<br /> [[zh:多重婚姻]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Book_of_Mormon_DNA&diff=74341 Book of Mormon DNA 2023-05-26T15:23:41Z <p>Gboyd: /* References */</p> <hr /> <div>The [[Book of Mormon]] vs. DNA controversy is an issue that most critics believe completely undermines Latter-day Saint beliefs in the truthfulness of the book.

Simply stated, as with the previously-mentioned example of Ugo’s autosomal DNA, there is a considerable difference between being genealogically related and having a genetic inheritance.<br /> <br /> :In fact, it is estimated that at the tenth generation level, and given an equal chance to propagate their autosomal DNA, a person would carry only 12% of his or her 1,024 ancestors’ DNA. This phenomenon can be observed in as few as a couple of generations at a family level, but the effects of genetic drift at the population level are even more drastic. Depending on the population size and the variety of DNA present in that population, over a time measured in generations, some of that variation will inevitably be lost due to chance.&quot;<br /> <br /> :12% is referred to the percentage of the 1024 ancestors that might be in the best scenario still minimally represented in a living descendants' genome and not to the total of the DNA. Therefore, out of 1024 ancestors (10 generation in the past = approximately 250-300 years ago), only approximately 100-120 of them might have any DNA at all survived in their descendants.<br /> <br /> ===What does this claim have to do with the factuality of the Book of Mormon?===<br /> <br /> [[Image:Mormon_Gold_Plates.jpg|400px|thumb|alt=Book of Mormon DNA|left]]<br /> The [[Book of Mormon]] is a religious record that was published in 1830 by [[Joseph Smith]], the founder and prophet of [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]—sometimes called the [[Mormon Church]]. The [http://bookofmormonresearch.org/ Book of Mormon] professes a story which outlines three migrations from the Old World to the New, more specifically from regions of the Middle East over to the American continent. The most prominent migration begins with the family of a man named [[Lehi]]. It was about 600 BC when Lehi's group left Jerusalem and set sail for an unknown &quot;[[Promised Land|promised land]].&quot; Their ship landed somewhere in the Western Hemisphere, though the exact location is unknown. <br /> <br /> Perhaps the controversy begins with an unofficial and individually assumed idea about the geographical location of the events portrayed in the Book of Mormon. Many Latter-day Saints and nonmembers have read the book and assumed that no one else was on the American continent when Lehi and his company arrived. Since the book describes no encounters with any other people than the Jaredites and Mulekites, it would be easy to assume [[Lehi]] and his wife were the parents of all human inhabitants in North and South America. This idea was previously (1981-2006) alluded to in the [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bm/introduction Introduction to the Book of Mormon]. The high numbers of people mentioned in the book as well as the assertion in the Introduction make it easy to think that this group of people and their operations must have encompassed the whole of the Western Hemisphere. If these underlying assumptions were justifiable, then any ancient inhabitant of the Americas—as well as their descendants—should rightly have genetic tracings to the Middle Eastern world, since Lehi and his company originated there. The fact that DNA testing of Native Americans points to Asian roots has caused many critics to declare without reservation that the the Book of Mormon has been proven false. <br /> <br /> However, since the notion of Lehi's group being the only one to discover and populate the entire Western Hemisphere and to cover all of South, Central, and North America is highly improbable, nor is it consistent with the book itself, we ought not assume that this is factual. According to experts, it is more likely that Lehi and his family were merely a limited, yet isolated addition to an extensive population already present in the Americas. It is believed, though not certain, that the Book of Mormon population was limited to Mesoamerica, ranging in the hundreds of miles, not thousands. <br /> <br /> In light of these conclusions, it is important to note that the Book of Mormon was written to be a spiritual text, not a record of the geographical or demographical facts of the ancient American peoples. It is also important to remember that the bulk of the Book of Mormon covers a limited time period, from about 600 BC to AD 400. Understanding the location and the degree to which the Book of Mormon people populated the land is very difficult to surmise with certainty. <br /> <br /> For more than fifty years, serious students of the Book of Mormon have read the book with an understanding of these limitations, though most members of the Church merely read the book as the spiritual and doctrinal resource that it is, rather than extensively pondering the unspecific geographic implications of the prophetic writings. Moreover, speculative geographic musings promulgated extensively in print (Washburn, 1939; Cheesman, 1974; Cheesman, 1984) and film (&quot;Ancient America Speaks&quot;) during the same years may have distracted people from this spiritual purpose while explicitly suggesting the plausibility of a location in Mesoamerica. Such materials suggest that archaeological and anthropological correlations to Book of Mormon events and persons should strengthen one's spiritual belief in the book, but this idea remains debatable. <br /> <br /> Apologetics involving archaeology and anthropology present an interesting conundrum. On the one hand, apologists can pursue actively the historicity of the Book of Mormon. As they do so, they are likely to be disappointed when current evidence contradicts or downplays specific avenues of study. For example, studies dating the construction of Machu Picchu to circa AD 1450 exclude this site from the time frame of the Book of Mormon. This has been a popular site for those interested in Book of Mormon geography. On the other hand, apologists can avoid the pursuit of historicity and base their faith solely on the gospel content of the book. As they do so, they are likely to be unprepared when people try to draw them away from the Church with persuasive research. Both paths suggest, however, that Church members would do well to know current research and issues in this area of study. <br /> <br /> There is nothing about the Book of Mormon, other than the assertion in the [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/bm/introduction Introduction], that is undermined by DNA studies. The translated ancient text of the book itself does not claim to stand in opposition to scientific theories that say most Native Americans migrated from northeast Asia over a land bridge. It merely claims to be the writings of a few specific groups of people who migrated and lived in the Western Hemisphere during a limited period of time. In order for DNA testing to have any hold on these assertions, it would be necessary to prove that never, at any point during the time period of 600 BC to AD 400 was there any group living in the Western Hemisphere who came from the Middle Eastern region, and that a migration into the mountains of Asia by a group of Israelites could not possibly explain the DNA similarities between the two populations. Obviously such assertions would be nearly impossible to justify without having their entire genealogical record. <br /> <br /> And so we are left where the Book of Mormon authors intended us to be: in a realm of faith. Latter-day Saints believe that the book was written by ancient prophets who recorded their faith and the words of the Lord. They, like the prophets in the Old and New Testament, were given revelations and instructions directly from God. Those things were recorded for the benefit and learning of future generations, that their descendants, all the house of Israel, and all Gentiles seeking the gospel might believe in [[Jesus Christ]] as the living son of God and the Savior of the world. One Book of Mormon prophet writes, &quot;And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophecy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.&quot; [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/scriptures/bofm/2-ne/25?lang=eng 2 Nephi 25:26]<br /> <br /> Reading the Book of Mormon and asking God if it is true is the only way to really know. Any other attempt will yield uncertain results. If God is the author of the book (through ancient prophets), then humble seekers will receive a confirmation from Him that the book is true.

There is no conflict in the mind of God, but often there is conflict in the minds of men.'' -[[Henry Eyring]]<br /> <br /> ==Native Americans as Descendants of the Lamanites==<br /> :If we were able to do the genealogy for a modern Native American to Lehi’s generation, we would have approximately 90 to 100 generations (we’ll choose 90 to keep it conservative). This Native American would have over 1.2 octillion ancestral slots (that’s more than 1.2 trillion x 1 quadrillion). Now obviously she would not have 1.2 octillion ancestors (there haven’t been that many people in the entire history of the world) since the same ancestors would fill many of these slots. Nevertheless, on a giant genealogy chart, there would be 1.2 octillion ancestral slots. From how many slots would our Native American be descended? All of them.<br /> <br /> :If Laman (or a descendant of Laman) was an ancestor in just one of these 1.2 octillion ancestral slots, then it can legitimately be claimed that our Native American is a descendant of Lamanite.<br /> :Recent studies suggest that we are related in several ways, and that many large groups of humans are often related in distinct ways as well. Such studies indicate that a large percentage of all people may have traces of Israelite ancestry, and that most people may be descendants of Abraham (see Genesis 22:17). In regards to the Book of Mormon, one scholar who has studied this concept notes: “The numerical dynamics of population mixing make it easily feasible … that most Amerindians are descended from Book of Mormon peoples, even if Book of Mormon peoples were originally a minority of ancient American populations and are thus only a part of the ancestry of most individuals.”<br /> <br /> :In summary, while there is no evidence for a genetic link between modern Native Americans and the Lehite/Lamanites (and there is no reason to suspect that Lehite DNA would be detectable in modern native peoples), LDS scriptures and prophets are justified in referring to them as “Lamanites” due to the likelihood of cultural and genealogical affiliations.<br /> ::Written by Michael R.

Latter-day Saint scientists accurately point out that this does not tell us how the DNA got there, whether by Lehi's descendants or by Spanish Conquistadores.

Truman named him FCC commissioner in April 1946. He was chairman from April 18, 1953, to October 3, 1954, under Dwight D. Eisenhower, and again from June 27, 1966, to October 31, 1969, under Lyndon B. Johnson. He was also acting chairman from April 19, 1954, to October 3, 1954, and again from May 1, 1966, to June 26, 1966. He holds the distinction of being the only FCC commissioner ever named chairman by a U.S. president not of the same political party (Johnson was a Democrat, Hyde a Republican).<br /> <br /> He retired from government service in October 1969 during President Richard Nixon’s presidency. He then became a partner in a Washington law firm until 1990.<br /> <br /> Hyde moved to Washington in 1924 to work for the Civil Service Commission and study law at George Washington University. He joined what was then the Federal Radio Commission (later the FCC, founded in 1934) in 1928. During his time in the FCC, Hyde passed the bar and then took on the role of associate attorney, attorney, attorney examiner (administrative law judge), senior attorney, principal attorney, assistant general counsel, and finally became general counsel. <br /> <br /> He helped participate in spectrum allocation meetings that led to the formation of FM radio and TV broadcasting. <br /> <br /> He also participated in the 1935 FCC frequency allocation hearings and in the 1938 network investigation that led to the inauguration of regular FM and TV broadcasting in 1941.<br /> <br /> Hyde staunchly defended the Fairness Doctrine, a regulation that required broadcasters to air both sides of a controversial issue. The regulation was abolished during the Reagan administration. He was instrumental in the 1969 prohibition of cigarette advertising on radio and television.<br /> <br /> Hyde received the National Association of Broadcasters Distinguished Service Award in 1970. He also received a Gold Medal Award from the International Radio and Television Society in 1965. <br /> <br /> He was born in Downey, Idaho, on April 12, 1900, and attended Utah Agricultural College in Logan, Utah. He was a lifelong member of [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints].

It is one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world because, in part, it does not have an outlet. <br /> <br /> At its average level at 4,200 feet above sea level, it is 75 miles long and 35 miles wide at its widest point. At its greatest depth, it is approximately 34 feet deep. The average depth is only 14 feet. During its recorded low in 1963, some of the lake's 10 major islands became peninsulas. In 1983, when the lake reached its historic high, it flooded houses, farmland, and the nearby freeway. Huge pumps were constructed to deposit excess water into Utah's west desert. The pumps were shut down in 1989.[https://www.utah.com/destinations/state-parks/great-salt-lake-state-park/]<br /> <br /> The Bear River, the Jordan River, the Ogden River, and the Weber River feed the Great Salt Lake, as do numerous streams. (The Jordan River is the only outlet of Utah Lake.) The surface area of the Great Salt Lake changes due to snow run off, rain, and evaporation. The salt flats that surround the lake are often flooded by the fluctuating lake level. <br /> <br /> The lake, although as much as 27 percent salinity (saltier than the ocean’s 3 percent), forms a complex ecosystem. “The ever-fluctuating Great Salt Lake has frustrated attempts to develop its shoreline. As a result much of the lake is ringed by extensive wetlands making Great Salt Lake one of the most important resources for migrating and nesting birds.”[https://www.utah.com/destinations/state-parks/great-salt-lake-state-park/great-salt-lake-facts/] A few of the most common are barn owl, American avocet, bald eagle, snowy plover, golden eagle, and pelicans.<br /> <br /> ==The Great Salt Lake and the Mormon Pioneers==<br /> <br /> The valley of the Great Salt Lake was an anticipated haven for the beleaguered members of [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]. The imposing Rocky Mountain Range created a barrier between the Saints and their persecutors. But the land was arid, and one of the advance party described it as “a broad and barren plain hemmed in by mountains ... the paradise of the lizard, the cricket and the rattlesnake”[https://www.historytoday.com/archive/mormons-reach-great-salt-lake-utah] [[Brigham Young]] and other Church leaders had heard reports of the valley that Kit Carson and John C. Fremont had explored in 1843 and 1845.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kit_Carson] And so the [[Mormon Pioneers|pioneers]] streamed into the valley, first arriving in July 1847.<br /> <br /> The pioneers immediately began turning the desert into productive land by creating irrigation from the creeks, streams, and rivers flowing from the nearby Wasatch Mountains. <br /> <br /> :In July 1847, four days after the Latter-day Saints reached what they called the Great Salt Lake Valley, President Young and pioneers were floating in the briny lake, reported historian John L. Clark.<br /> <br /> :“We took our dinner at the freshwater pool and then rode six miles to a large rock on the shore of the Salt Lake which we named Blackrock, where we all halted and bathed in the salt water,” future church president [[Wilford Woodruff]] wrote. “No person could sink in it but would roll and float on the surface like a dry log. We concluded that the Salt Lake was one of the wonders of the world.”[https://www.deseret.com/2023/3/16/23642136/what-early-lds-mormon-church-leaders-said-great-salt-lake]<br /> <br /> Their new city was called Great Salt Lake City until they dropped “Great.” Utah Territory and parts of neighboring states, in time, became the refuge that the Saints were looking for.<br /> <br /> ==Ancient History==<br /> Some 10,000 to 30,000 years ago, prehistoric freshwater Lake Bonneville once covered 20,000 square miles of much of the western portion of Utah, reaching into Nevada and Idaho. Its shorelines included many islands and peninsulas. Shorelines of Lake Bonneville can be seen as shelves or benches above Salt Lake City. The Stansbury, Bonneville, and Provo shorelines are also seen in satellite images.<br /> <br /> After the overflowing phase about 15,000 years ago, Lake Bonneville went through a regressive phase, and a warmer and drier climate caused the lake to diminish to roughly 2/3 of the maximum depth.<br /> <br /> Utah Lake and Sevier Lake are also remnants of Lake Bonneville. <br /> <br /> [[Image:GSL-drought.jpg|400px|thumb|left|frame|NASA satellite images of shrinking Great Salt Lake]]<br /> <br /> ==Drought==<br /> The topic of the 2023 Stegner Symposium was the future of the Great Salt Lake, which the United States Geological Survey says is at a historic low elevation. A severe drought has gripped much of the western United States for many years. Researchers at [[Brigham Young University]] (BYU) say that without a dramatic increase in water, the lake could be gone in as little as five years. And that disappearance could cause significant damage to Utah’s public health, environment, and economy.<br /> <br /> Speaking at the 28th annual Wallace Stegner Center Symposium at the University of Utah on Friday, March 17, 2023, Bishop [[W. Christopher Waddell]] of the [[Presiding Bishopric]] of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints outlined this history and the Church’s current and future water conservation efforts. He described the “continual and ongoing Churchwide effort to improve our care of natural resources, including the implementation of best practices and available technology to improve our water efficiency.”<br /> <br /> “We are committed to be a part of the solution to help the Great Salt Lake and have made some initial efforts to contribute,” Bishop Waddell said.<br /> <br /> Those efforts include the donation announced on March 15, 2023, of the Church’s water shares in the North Point Consolidated Irrigation Company — possibly the largest permanent donation of water to benefit the Great Salt Lake that Utah has ever received. The 20,000 acre-feet donated are equivalent to a water supply for 20,000 single-family homes.<br /> <br /> He also mentioned research by BYU faculty that helps Church leaders and others know how to best save the Great Salt Lake.<br /> <br /> “We are indebted to the subject matter experts who study the conditions of the Great Salt Lake and the impacts and future risks of its declining water levels,” Bishop Waddell said. “We encourage engagement and responsiveness to legislative changes and other recommendations from subject matter experts recognizing the need to act with urgency and unity towards the future we hope for — one with a healthy Great Salt Lake.”<br /> <br /> He also detailed the Church’s other water conservation plans. <br /> <br /> In addition to all the Church has done and is doing to conserve water, Bishop Waddell said prayer is critical and has proven providential.<br /> <br /> In June 2022, the Church invited Latter-day Saints to “join with friends of other faiths in prayer to our Heavenly Father for rain and respite from the devastating drought.” The invitation emphasized that “we all play a part in preserving the critical resources needed to sustain life — especially water — and we invite others to join us in reducing water use wherever possible.”<br /> <br /> The Utah Department of Natural Resources reported that as of March 16, 2023, water content in the snowpack across Utah is at an all-time high for the date.[https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/bishop-waddell-great-salt-lake-water-conservation-church-jesus-christ]<br /> <br /> The snowpack is much needed and appreciated because, at the record low set in November 2022, the Great Salt Lake was 4,188.2 feet above sea level, down from the historic high of 4,211.6 feet set in 1986.<br /> <br /> ==Islands in the Great Salt Lake==<br /> The Great Salt Lake has 17 officially named islands, but due to the changing elevation of the lake, there are usually less. These include, Badger, Strongs Knob, Cub (Greater Cub and Lesser Cub), Egg, Carrington, Hat, Dolphin, and Gunnison. Often left out of the count are Black Rock, White Rock, Browns, Rock, and two Goose Islands. The three main islands are Antelope Island, Fremont Island, and Stansbury Island. The major islands and some of the minor ones are actually mountain ranges that poke up above the lake.<br /> <br /> There is an artificial island known as Goose Egg, which was formed from the May 1983 Rudd Canyon debris flow, which was hauled and piled up in Farmington Bay. Mud Island in Ogden Bay was designated on maps for about 100 years. Two other islands, Newfoundland and Little Mountain, were islands for a time. <br /> <br /> '''[[Antelope Island]]''', named by John C. Fremont, is the largest island in the lake where Heber P. Kimball, Lot Smith, and Fielding Garr brought cattle belonging to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. [[Mormon Pioneers|Mormon pioneer]] Garr built a ranch house, and the Fielding Garr Ranch is still open to tourists. Antelope Island State Park offers hiking, camping, and sailing. The island is also home to bison, antelope, deer, bobcats, coyotes, elk, and waterfowl. <br /> <br /> '''Stansbury Island''' is named for Howard Stansbury, who surveyed the area in 1850. The island has a 9-mile mountain biking trail. It has wildlife, including deer, lizards, wild turkeys, jackrabbits, and hawks. There are private property sections of the island, but enough public land for parking, hiking, biking, rockhounding, and camping. It also hosts pink water near its shoreline due to the brine shrimp in the lake.<br /> <br /> '''Fremont Island''' has been privately owned by different groups or individuals. In 2020, the land was donated by a private donor to the State of Utah, Division of Forestry, Fire &amp; State Lands. Although the island is managed as public, the Nature Conservancy holds a conservation easement designed to protect the land from development or damage. Public access is allowed, although there are warnings and rules for visitors.[https://ffsl.utah.gov/fremont-island/] Walking and biking are allowed.<br /> <br /> [[Image:GSL-pink.jpg|300px|thumb|right]]<br /> <br /> ==Unique Features at the Great Salt Lake==<br /> * Spiral Jetty, an earthen sculpture by Robert Smithson built in 1970, is visible when the Great Salt Lake level is below 4,195 feet elevation.<br /> * Bonneville Salt Flats stretch over 30,000 acres west of the lake. The arid plain where the Black Pearl is beached in ''Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest'' was filmed here. The Bonneville Speedway is located in the western portion, where numerous land speed records have been set.<br /> * The railway causeway that divides the Great Salt Lake creates blue water on the side where salt water mixes with fresh and pink on the saltier side that hosts salt-loving organisms.<br /> * Saltair Pavilion was a resort completed in 1893 and owned jointly by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the Salt Lake and Los Angeles Railway. It was built in the early 20th century Moorish Revival architectural style. Constructed on 2,000 posts and pilings, it was intended to mirror the East Coast’s Coney Island. It was a popular family destination for a time. The Church sold the resort in 1906. It burned in 1925, was rebuilt, but burned again in 1931. It closed during World War II and was destroyed by arson in 1970. The third Saltair was built in 1981 and serves as a music venue.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saltair_(Utah)]<br /> <br /> ==External Sources==<br /> * [https://stateparks.utah.gov/stateparks/wp-content/uploads/sites/26/2015/02/GSL-Ed-packet.pdf Utah State Parks, “Great Salt Lake”]<br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Bonneville Wikipedia, “Lake Bonneville”]<br /> * [https://geology.utah.gov/map-pub/survey-notes/glad-you-asked/how-many-islands-are-in-the-great-salt-lake/ Utah Geological Survey, “How Many Islands Are in Great Salt Lake?” by Jim Davis]<br /> * [https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/bishop-waddell-great-salt-lake-water-conservation-church-jesus-christ Church Newsroom, “Bishop Waddell Talks Water Conservation in the Church of Jesus Christ”]<br /> * [https://www.deseret.com/2023/3/16/23642136/what-early-lds-mormon-church-leaders-said-great-salt-lake Deseret News, “What early church leaders said about the Great Salt Lake,” by Tad Walch]<br /> * [https://www.uen.org/utah_history_encyclopedia/i/IRRIGATION.shtml Utah History Encyclopedia, “Irrigation in Utah,” by Craig Fuller]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Places of Church Interest]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Alan_T._Phillips&diff=73742 Alan T.

With brothers Daniel and Jordan Harmon, they created VidAngel, the predecessor of Angel Studios, in 2014. According to ''Deseret News'', the streaming service that allowed users to remove content they found objectionable from Hollywood movies and TV shows “attracted enough customers and irritated enough Hollywood studios that a court issued a preliminary injunction ordering it to stop its streaming service. A subsequent verdict in 2019 ordered VidAngel to pay $62 million in damages to several studios, and the company filed for bankruptcy. In September 2020, Utah Bankruptcy Court Judge Kevin R. Anderson approved the settlement of a $9.9 million payout to Disney and Warner Bros. that would stretch out over 14 years and allow the company to emerge from bankruptcy. The company operates a filtering service based on Netflix and Amazon content and has started to produce some of its own original programming. <br /> <br /> VidAngel CEO Neal Harmon said in September 2020, “As with any compromise, we had to make painfully difficult concessions to arrive at this agreement, as did Disney and Warner Brothers.

I began to understand the scripture and the more I gave my attention to hearing Mormonism and reading the Bible, the more I was convinced it was true. I was sorry I had ever embraced any religious system or doctrine. Some two or three months passed away and I still went to hear the Mormons preach, but I hated to change so often. It looked like there was no stability in me. I was satisfied, I should lose all my friends by embracing the truth, but I had set out to do right, let what would come.

Truly, this is the symbolic act to begin a foundation for a most sacred building.&quot;<br /> <br /> Elder Bednar further commented, &quot;Yes, we love the temple, we love to see the temple, we want to be in the temple, but not because just of the building, but because of the covenants and the ordinances [promises and ceremonies] that provide access for us in our daily lives to the power of godliness.&quot; In the dedicatory prayer, he prayed, &quot;. . . .that this location will be hallowed, that it will be safeguarded and protected.

Hinckley]] announced the building of smaller Latter-day Saint temples. There are many areas of the Church that are remote and where membership is small and not likely to grow much in the future. So it was decided to begin building the smaller temples, the first being in [[Monticello Utah Temple|Monticello]], Utah, and the second being the Anchorage Alaska Temple. The goal of the Church is to have temples available and accessible to all its members. In the past, members remote from major Church populations have had to travel great distances at great cost in order to reach a temple. Many of these members could only make one temple trip in a lifetime. Before the dedication of the Anchorage Alaska Temple, Alaskans traveled at least 1,000 miles to attend the [[Seattle Washington Temple]] or the [[Cardston Alberta Temple]].<br /> <br /> After the groundbreaking of the Anchorage Temple in 1998 by Elder [[F. Melvin Hammond]] of the [[Seventy]], the construction of the 6,800 square foot temple took only nine months. Brother Green, the temple architect, faced the challenge of finding ways to make this temple uniquely Alaskan. He prayed for inspiration, and on one of his trips to Salt Lake City, he noticed something on the [[Salt Lake Temple]] that he hadn't seen before—the seven stars of the Big Dipper pointing to the North Star. That symbol is found on the Alaskan flag and is now depicted on the west side of the Anchorage Alaska Temple. Along with that, the temple walls are covered with gray and white quartz-flecked granite, and the temple design incorporates Alaskan motifs, such as likenesses of fir trees on the doorway pilasters. The stained glass is reminiscent of water, and stylized evergreens with patterns resembling native designs are used to adorn interior furnishings. [1]<br /> <br /> President [[Gordon B. Hinckley]] dedicated the Anchorage Alaska Temple on January 9, 1999, in seven sessions, with more than six thousand members from as far away as the Yukon braving the freezing weather.<br /> :No matter how strong the cold winds of winter blast against our lives – surely the winds of adversity will come – we must keep the gospel flame in our hearts warm and bright. If we do that, then we will be as those whom the Savior spoke of as He concluded the Sermon on the Mount: &quot;Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.&quot; [2]<br /> <br /> The Anchorage Alaska Temple closed in April 2003 for a 10-month expansion project that added a second ordinance room, offices, new dressing rooms, a waiting room, laundry room, and elevator. After the remodeling that nearly doubled its size, President Hinckley rededicated the temple on February 8, 2004. The Anchorage Alaska Temple now has a total floor area of 11,937 square feet.<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65LlSF-D_Xo&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;embedvideo service=&quot;youtube&quot; urlargs=&quot;rel=0&quot; dimensions=&quot;400x225&quot; alignment=&quot;inline&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkVJLbsMde8&amp;rel=0&lt;/embedvideo&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Notes==<br /> # &quot;Gathering of Saints&quot;, by Jasper and Lommel, p 320<br /> # ''LDS Church News'', &quot;Work Goes On&quot;<br /> <br /> ==See also==<br /> * [[Inside Mormon temples|Inside Mormon Temples]]<br /> * [[Mormon temple|Mormon Temples]]<br /> * [[Temple endowment|The Temple Endowment]]<br /> * [[Mormon undergarments|Mormon Undergarments]]<br /> * [[LDS Weddings]]<br /> <br /> ==External Links==<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/temples/details/anchorage-alaska-temple?lang=eng Official Anchorage Alaska Temple page]<br /> * [https://churchofjesuschristtemples.org/anchorage-alaska-temple/ Anchorage Alaska Temple page]<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/temples/details/anchorage-alaska-temple/prayer/1999-01-09?lang=eng Anchorage Alaska Temple dedicatory prayer, 1999]<br /> * [https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/temples/details/anchorage-alaska-temple/prayer/2004-02-08?lang=eng Anchorage Alaska Temple dedicatory prayer, 2004]<br /> * [http://www.religionfacts.com/mormonism/practices/temple_ordinances.htm Mormon Temple Ordinances] - ReligionFacts<br /> * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_(Mormonism) Latter-day Saint Temples] - Wikipedia<br /> * [http://www.lightplanet.com/mormons/people/joseph_smith/index.html Prophet Joseph Smith] - Lightplanet<br /> <br /> [[Category:Temples]]<br /> <br /> [[es:Templo de Anchorage Alaska]]<br /> [[pt:Templo de Anchorage Alasca]]<br /> [[it:Tempio di Anchorage]]<br /> [[ko:알래스카 주 앵커리지성전]]</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Lenore_Romney&diff=72071 Lenore Romney 2023-01-16T23:57:16Z <p>Gboyd: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Lenore-Romney.jpg|250px|thumb|left]]<br /> <br /> '''Lenore LaFount Romney''' was the First Lady of Michigan from 1963 to 1969. She was the Republican Party nominee for the U.S. Senate in 1970.<br /> <br /> Lenore was born on November 9, 1908, in Logan, Utah, and reared in Salt Lake City. She earned a degree from George Washington University in 1929. She also attended the University of Utah.<br /> <br /> In 1927, she was one of a group of six young women chosen to welcome Charles Lindbergh to Salt Lake City following his historic Spirit of St. Louis flight.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenore_Romney]<br /> <br /> She also studied acting at the American Laboratory Theatre in New York and appeared in small roles in a number of MGM films. She also worked as a voice actor in animated cartoons. Talent scouts for NBC had also offered her the opportunity to appear in a series of Shakespeare radio programs, which she turned down. She reportedly “was dismayed by some of the seamier aspects of Hollywood.”[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenore_Romney]<br /> <br /> She married [[George W. Romney]] in the [[Salt Lake Temple]] in July 1931. After her marriage, she directed student plays at George Washington University and, during 1933–1934, hosted a 15-minute weekly program, Petical Hitchhiking on radio station WRC. She was the mother of two daughters and two sons, including U.S. Senator [[Mitt Romney]]. <br /> <br /> She served in numerous charitable and cultural organizations, such as co-chair of the Muscular Dystrophy Association. She served with the American Mothers Committee, was on the national board of directors of the YWCA, and a member of a national advisory board to the American Field Services. She had also held high positions with Goodwill Industries, United Community Services, Child Guidance Study, Association for Retarded Children, Michigan Association for Emotionally Disturbed Children, and the Michigan Historical Society. She worked with Project HOPE, the National Center for Voluntary Action, and National Conference of Christians and Jews. She was an advocate for women in business and politics. She was chair of the Detroit Grand Opera Association and was active with the Women's Association for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra.<br /> <br /> Her views on many social issues were more liberal than most of the Republican Party, and she appeared on stage with Martin Luther King Jr. at Michigan State University on March 9, 1966, when King gave his &quot;Chicago Wall&quot; speech. On the issue of the Church policy of the time that did not allow black people in its lay clergy, she defended the church, saying, &quot;If my church taught me anything other than that the Negro is equal to any other person, I could not accept it.”[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenore_Romney]<br /> <br /> Lenore also campaigned for her husband’s gubernatorial run and reelection and made many speeches before groups of Republican women. She also campaigned for him in his 1968 presidential campaign—he withdrew in February 1868 when it was clear that Richard Nixon would be the party’s nomination. <br /> <br /> In 1969, Lenore received the Woman of the Year Award from [[Brigham Young University]]. She was named one of the National Top Ten Women News Makers for 1970. She was given the Salvation Army's Humanitarian Award, Michigan State University's Distinguished Citizen Award, and also received recognition from Hadassah and the International Platform Association.<br /> <br /> Lenore was awarded six honorary degrees. She died on July 7, 1998. She was a member of [http://comeuntochrist.org The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Famous Mormons]]<br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Romney, Lenore}}</div> Gboyd https://www.mormonwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=MormonWiki_Articles&diff=71940 MormonWiki Articles 2023-01-13T01:20:03Z <p>Gboyd: /* Latter-day Saint Business Professionals and Entrepreneurs */</p> <hr /> <div>'''This page contain links to most of the articles of Mormonwiki classified by topics.'''<br /> <br /> '''For a complete list of all articles go to: [http://www.mormonwiki.com/Special:Allpages All Pages]'''<br /> <br /> The following articles seek to offer information regarding the beliefs, doctines, policies, and members of [[The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints]] (commonly referred to as the Mormon Church or simply the Mormons).

He was raised a Quaker and converted to the Church. He married Caroline Allen in Quincy, Illinois.<br /> <br /> When the Prophet [[Joseph Smith]] announced plans to build a temple in [[Nauvoo]], Illinois, Weeks and other architects submitted designs. William’s nephew, F. M. Weeks, recalled William telling him that “when [William] went in and showed his plans, Joseph Smith grabbed him, hugged him and said ‘you are the man I want.’”[https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/content/museum/william-weeks-architect-of-the-nauvoo-temple?lang=eng] Weeks was considered the chief architect for the [[Nauvoo Temple]]. However, the Prophet directed the work.<br /> <br /> : Joseph Smith received many instructions about the temple by revelation, and he was considered the chief architect for the temple.

He served on the [[First Council of the Seventy]] from October 5, 1897, until his death on October 24, 1932. He also presided over the California Mission of the Church from 1919 until his death. <br /> <br /> McMurrin was born in Tooele, Utah Territory, on September 5, 1858, and was reared in Salt Lake City. He learned the stone-cutting trade and worked as a stone cutter for the [[Salt Lake Temple]] while a teenager. <br /> <br /> After serving a mission for the Church to St. Joseph, Arizona, for two years, he hauled freight from Salt Lake City to various mining camps. He contracted to build a portion of the Oregon Short Line Railroad through Wyoming. He then served a mission to Scotland, where he baptized two of his aunts. <br /> <br /> Back home in Utah, he acted as a bodyguard to Church leaders during the anti-polygamy period. In 1885 he was shot by a US Marshall through his vitals but survived after being given a priesthood blessing by [[John Henry Smith]].[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_W._McMurrin]<br /> <br /> President [[James E. Faust]] told the story in a general conference talk in 1982:<br /> <br /> :Early in the history of this valley, Joseph W. McMurrin was placed in charge of guarding some of the leaders of the Church. At a meeting in Social Hall in Salt Lake City, an intruder under a claim of authority tried to enter the hall, and Joseph W. McMurrin, being true to his trust to guard the servants of the Lord, restrained him from going through the door. President Heber J. Grant relates that the intruder “finally got his hand loose and took his pistol and, pressing it against Brother McMurrin’s body, fired two bullets … through his vitals. Those bullets lodged just under the skin of his back. He was attended by Dr. Joseph Benedict, who told Joseph W. McMurrin that no man could live after two bullets had passed through his vitals and then added: ‘If you wish to make a dying statement, you should do so immediately.’<br /> <br /> :“I went with John Henry Smith to Brother McMurrin’s home and saw where the flesh was burned away around those terrible gaping wounds. I saw where the bullets had gone clear through him. I heard John Henry Smith say, ‘By the authority of the Priesthood of the living God which we hold, and in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ, we say that you shall be made absolutely whole, and that there shall be no physical weakness left upon your body because of these terrible wounds that you have received while guarding the servants of the living God.’”<br /> <br /> :On November 21, 1931, President Grant concluded, “Joseph W. McMurrin is alive and well, and has never had any physical weakness because of those terrible wounds.” (Gospel Standards, Salt Lake City: Improvement Era, 1969, pp. 310–11.)[https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/general-conference/1982/04/integrity-the-mother-of-many-virtues?lang=eng]<br /> <br /> McMurrin married Mary Ellen Hunter on April 1, 1880, and they were the parents of seven children. In 1886 she served with him when he was head of the London Conference. Ten years later, McMurrin served as the first counselor of the European Mission presidency. He is credited with being one of the key people to implement single women being called as missionaries. <br /> <br /> ===Source===<br /> * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_W._McMurrin Wikipedia, “Joseph W.

Over the past two years, the industry has seen a 23% increase in children/family programming, per theemmys.tv. On Dec. 11, the inaugural Children’s and Family Emmy Awards celebrated several of these new works — including the Disney+ movie “Sneakerella” and Netflix’s “The Baby-Sitters Club,” which both boast a remarkable 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.<br /> <br /> Overall, Netflix and Disney+ came out as the big winners in the ceremony, each claiming 23 and 14 awards, respectively.
