TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY December 25
1843 - The Prophet Joseph and his family were awaken about 1:00 am to the sounds of carolers-an English sister, Lettice Rushton, who was blind, accompanied by three of her sons, with their wives, and her two daughters, with their husbands, and several of her neighbors---outside their home in Nauvoo, which the Prophet records "caused a thrill of pleasure to run through my soul." At 2:00 p.m., about fifty couples came to the Prophet's home to dine. The evening was spent "in music, dancing, &c., in a most cheerful and friendly manner." During the festivities, after nearly ten months in a Missouri jail, Orrin Porter Rockwell arrives at the home of the Prophet Joseph Smith in Nauvoo. At first the Prophet thought it was a Missouri ruffian causing problems and ordered the captain of the police to remove him. A fight ensued and when the Prophet attempted to help, he recognized who it was, which brought him great joy and satisfaction. Also, brother Daniel Avery was freed by his kidnappers who had taken him to Missouri earlier in the year. (History of the Church, 6:134)
