The Book of Mormon Is For Us
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
3 Nephi 7: 15-17

"And it came to pass that Nephi---having been visited by angels and also the voice of the Lord, . . . and also being eye-witness to their quick return from righteousness unto their wickedness and abominations; Therefore, being grieved for the hardness of their hearts and the blindness of their minds---went forth among them in that same year, and began to testify, boldly, repentance and remission of sins through faith on the Lord Jesus Christ. And he did minister many things unto them; . . .  And Nephi did minister with power and with great authority."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Ezra Taft Benson

"From the Book of Mormon we learn how disciples of Christ live in times of war. From the Book of Mormon we see the evils of secret combinations portrayed in graphic and chilling reality. . . . we see in the Book of Mormon the dangers of materialism and setting our hearts on the things of the world. Can anyone doubt that this book was meant for us and that in it we find great power, great comfort, and great protection?" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Ezra Taft Benson, p. 140).

The next morning, as Denise and Carol began their first full day helping to better organize the Wallsburg camp, Aaron was in downtown Salt Lake. He was still trying to wrap his mind around the extent of the damage that lay before him.


LIBRARY: Thunder Ridge Fort:Chapter 7: Courage

It had been several days since David Star Eagle had walked through the fort's doors and gave himself up to the posse guards.  The posse was satisfied with their captive and had released all the families from the schoolhouse and left the fort.  Everything seemed to be "back to normal" in some ways, but for Janet and Jonas, things would never seem the same again.
