QUOTE OF THE DAY
Joseph F. Smith

"Oh! God, let me not lose my own. I can not afford to lose mine, whom God has given to me and whom I am responsible for before the Lord, and who are dependent upon me for guidance, for instruction, for proper influence. Father, do not permit me to lose interest in my own . . . Charity begins at home. Life everlasting should begin at home. 

"I should feel very badly to be made to realize, by and by, that through my neglect of home, while trying to save others, I have lost my own. I do not want that. The Lord help me to save my own, so far as one can help another. I realize I cannot save anybody, but I can teach them how to be saved. I can set an example before my children how they can be saved, and it is my duty to do that first" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 244).

1846 - The Quorum of the Twelve met in the morning and discussed the need for the Saints to begin to leave Nauvoo for the west as soon as possible.  In the afternoon, a meeting of the captains of hundreds and fifties met. Brigham Young laid before them the situation and the fear the government and mobs were planning on harassing them to keep them from leaving.  They all agreed to move the time of leaving Nauvoo forward and left the meeting to make final preparations.
