SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY Doctrine & Covenants 138:57-59
"I beheld that the faithful elders of this dispensation, when they depart from mortal life, continue their labors in the preaching of the gospel of repentance and redemption, through the sacrifice of the Only Begotten Son of God, among those who are in darkness and under the bondage of sin in the great world of the spirits of the dead. The dead who repent will be redeemed, through obedience to the ordinances of the house of God, and after they have paid the penalty of their transgressions, and are washed clean, shall receive a reward according to their works, for they are heirs of salvation."

| QUOTE OF THE DAY John Taylor
"It is not a work that will be done in a little corner, but it will reach throughout time into eternity. It will go back into eternity, and take hold of those who have died thousands of years ago, and bring them into the kingdom of God. It will pour blessings upon generations to come, and ultimately unite heaven and earth together, and this we will accomplish in the name of Israel's God. The powers of heaven lend us their aid, and our fathers in the eternal world are uniting with us; for we have the promise of the life which now is, and also that which is to come" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: John Taylor, p. 226). |
"When Joseph got the plates, the angel instructed him to carry them back to the Hill Cumorah, which he did. Oliver said that when Joseph and Oliver went there, the hill opened, and they walked into a cave, in which there was a large and spacious room.
Her baptism was wonderful. Elder Packer baptized her, and I had the blessing of confirming her.

1830 - About this time, the Prophet Joseph arrives home in Harmony, Pennsylvania. Even though the Church was less than four months old, the persecution had become intense and the Prophet Joseph and other leaders of the Church went into partial seclusion. The Prophet Joseph received three revelations during this time that are recorded as Doctrine and Covenants 24, 25, and 26. These revelations include the words, "Be patient in afflictions, for thou shalt have many" (Doctrine and Covenants 24:8) addressed to the Prophet Joseph, and the calling of Emma Smith to select hymns for use in the Church, "for my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea, the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me" (Doctrine and Covenants 25:12).
