QUOTE OF THE DAY
Howard W. Hunter
Howard W. Hunter
“After having come to an understanding of the law of the gospel and the will of the Lord by reading and studying the scriptures and the words of the prophets, then comes the further understanding of the reason why obedience is often referred to as the first law of heaven and why obedience is necessary to be saved. This brings us to the supreme test. Are we willing to become totally obedient to God’s law? There comes a time in our lives when a definite decision must be made” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Howard W. Hunter, p. 247).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY
February 4, 2021
1846 - The first wagons of the Charles Shumway family crossed the Mississippi River, thus beginning the great Mormon Exodus from Nauvoo to the Salt Lake Valley.  After crossing on ferries, they broke a trail westward traveling nine miles to the banks of Sugar Creek to await the arrival of Brigham Young.  Also, the ship Brooklyn, under the leadership of Samuel Brannan, left New York with 238 Saints on board bound for California.  Ten Saints would loose their life on this six month voyage around the southern tip of South America to the San Francisco Bay.
