SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Doctrine & Covenants 110:13-15

"After this vision had closed, another great and glorious vision burst upon us; for Elijah the prophet, who was taken to heaven without tasting death, stood before us, and said: Behold, the time has fully come, which was spoken of by the mouth of Malachi---testifying that he [Elijah] should be sent, before the great and dreadful day of the Lord come---To turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the children to the fathers, lest the whole earth be smitten with a curse."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Brigham Young

"Now, all you children, are you looking to the salvation of your fathers? Are you seeking diligently to redeem those that have died without the Gospel, inasmuch as they sought the Lord Almighty to obtain promises for you? For our fathers did obtain promises that their seed should not be forgotten. O ye children of the fathers, look at these things. You are to enter into the temples of the Lord and officiate for your forefathers" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young, p. 310).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY
July 5

1838 - Just over 500 Saints began to gather "about one hundred rods south of the House of the Lord" in Kirtland, Ohio, to organize and prepare themselves for the journey to Missouri.  They were the remaining faithful Saints in Kirtland who were the poor and destitute who would join together for the journey west in what was to be called the "Kirtland Camp."  They would arrive in October, 1838, where the Prophet Joseph Smith settled them in Adam-ondi-Ahman just a couple weeks before the mob action against the Saints resulted in the Extermination Order. This journey of the poor, but faithful Saints, from Kirtland to Missouri, would become one of the great stories in Church History.
