QUOTE OF THE DAY Lorenzo Snow | |
“I feel that the Latter-day Saints are advancing; that they are receiving an education. We are getting up higher and higher. We are advancing to a higher condition and sphere and to a higher plane, and we are receiving such an education that the wisdom of the world with all its attainments and false doctrines and principles, will have no effect upon the Latter-day Saints, for they are rising above the theories and hypothesis of human inventions and soaring in things of truth that raise the mind, exalt the understanding, and establishing them[selves] more and more fully in the true principles of life and glory” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Lorenzo Snow, p.63-64).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY July 22 | |
1847 - Orson Pratt rode back to the main body of the pioneers and reported what he had seen the previous day. The decision was made that a group of brethren, led by Orson Pratt, would enter the valley and find a suitable place to plant seed while the rest of the main body would be led by Willard Richards into the valley. The main camp broke camp at about 8:30 a.m. and started down the remaining 2½ miles of canyon. At the mouth, they stopped for four hours to grade the hill at the entrance of the canyon to make travel easier for the wagons to enter the valley. They made camp on Mill Creek that night, about four miles south of what would become their new settlement of Salt Lake City. Brigham Young’s rear company moved forward today, traveling eight miles. For the first time, Latter-day Saints camped the night in the valley of the Great Salt Lake. For More History, Click Here! | |
