SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Proverbs 21:21
"He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour."
|
QUOTE OF THE DAY Brigham Young
"Strive to be righteous, not for any speculation, but because righteousness is lovely, pure, holy, beautiful, and exalting; it is designed to make the soul happy and full of joy, to the extent of the whole capacity of man, filling him with light, glory, and intelligence" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young, p. 321). |
Library: Latter-day Light: Chapter 10: Thomas E. Ricks
"May each of us take a moment and reflect on the legacy left to each of us by those who have gone before. Then with a grateful heart, remember the love of our Father in Heaven, and continue to move forward in faith."

1839 - The Prophet Joseph Smith writes the Missouri State Legislature from Liberty Jail, requesting a change of venue for his trial. The hope was to move the trail from the prejudiced western Missouri people and Judge King to a more neutral place such as St. Louis, Missouri.
1848 - Henry Bigler, a member of the Mormon Battalion, recorded in his journal James W. Marshall's discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill on the South Fork of the American River in California. This discovery would lead to the California Gold Rush in 1849. Bigler, and several other discharged members of the Mormon Battalion, had been hired by Sutter to construct a mill along the river.
