| SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Daniel 2:34-35 |
|
Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.

| QUOTE OF THE DAY Gordon B. Hinckley |
|
“All of the history of the past had pointed to this season. The centuries, with all of their suffering and all of their hope, had come and gone. The Almighty Judge of the nations, the Living God, determined that the times of which the prophets had spoken had arrived. Daniel had foreseen a stone that was cut out of the mountain without hands and that rolled forth and filled the whole earth (see Daniel 2:34–35). Then occurred that most wonderful event, the revealing of the Father and the Son to the 14-year-old Joseph Smith. There followed in orderly procession the coming forth of the Book of Mormon and the restoration of the priesthood with keys to unlock the door of eternal life. How thankful we should be for these marvelous and wonderful things that so richly bless our lives . . .” (“Experiences Worth Remembering,” BYU Devotional,, October 31, 2006).

1856 - The first handcart company left Iowa City, Iowa, for the Salt Lake Valley. There were 274 persons traveling with 52 handcarts and 5 wagons. Edmund Ellsworth, a 37-year old returning missionary, was selected to be the leader of the company. Archer Walters, an English convert, kept a journal of the company’s crossing. “At 5 p.m., the carts were in motion proceeding Zionwards. The Saints were in excellent spirits, bound Zionwards. The camp traveled about four miles and pitched their tents. All well” (Handcarts to Zion, p. 199). They would arrive in Salt Lake City on September 26th.
