| SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 3 Nephi 11:8-11 |
|
And it came to pass, as they understood they cast their eyes up again towards heaven; and behold, they saw a Man descending out of heaven; and he was clothed in a white robe; and he came down and stood in the midst of them; and the eyes of the whole multitude were turned upon him, and they durst not open their mouths, even one to another, and wist not what it meant, for they thought it was an angel that had appeared unto them. And it came to pass that he stretched forth his hand and spake unto the people, saying: Behold, I am Jesus Christ, whom the prophets testified shall come into the world. And behold, I am the light and the life of the world; and I have drunk out of that bitter cup which the Father hath given me, and have glorified the Father in taking upon me the sins of the world, in the which I have suffered the will of the Father in all things from the beginning.

| QUOTE OF THE DAY George Albert Smith |
“What more direct evidence of resurrection from the dead could have been had than that he, in his resurrected body, came among [the Nephites] and taught them the same Gospel that he taught in Jerusalem? And he now fulfilled the promise he had made in Jerusalem when he said, ‘Other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold and one shepherd.’ [John 10:16.] He came in his resurrected body to bring to them the information he had predicted should be given to those to whom he now ministered” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: George Albert Smith, p. 26).

| TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY April 12 |
|
1843 - The first boat of the year coming up the Mississippi River was the Amaranth carrying about 240 Saints from England, being led by Lorenzo Snow. The Prophet Joseph greeted them as they arrived in Nauvoo. Later in the day, the Maid of Iowa arrived in Nauvoo with about 200 Saints from England. They had been stuck in St. Louis over the winter due to the ice on the river. The Prophet Joseph also greeted them as they arrived in this “cornerstone of Zion.”
