For more events in Church History
1838 - About this time, a member of the Church in the Kirtland, Ohio, area, a brother Thomlinson, had been trying to sell his property without success. He asked Brigham Young for advice. He was told he would sell it if he would do what was right and obey counsel. Three days latter it sold and he gave $300 to Brigham Young who then sent it to the Prophet Joseph, providing him with the funds necessary to take his family to Missouri.
1843 - It was a day of fasting, praise, and prayer, a day of jubilee, in Nauvoo, Illinois, to express thanksgiving to God for the deliverance of the Prophet Joseph Smith from his enemies in Missouri during the recent court proceedings in Springfield, Illinois. Several meetings were held around the city, the Prophet attending and speaking at the one held at his home.
As we planned to expand the "Today in Church History" section and add new material, it was decided to provide a link to our new website to keep the email to a manageable size with a simple link to provide you with the additional information. We hope you will enjoy the additional history and other material in the future. Thank you for your patience as our website comes online and we adjust to these changes. |
