    University of Nevada, Reno THE SECRET MORMON MEETINGS OF 1922 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History By Shannon Caldwell Montez C. Elizabeth Raymond, Ph.D. / Thesis Advisor December 2019 Copyright by Shannon Caldwell Montez 2019 All Rights Reserved UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA RENO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by SHANNON CALDWELL MONTEZ entitled The Secret Mormon Meetings of 1922 be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS C. Elizabeth Raymond, Ph.D., Advisor Cameron B. Strang, Ph.D., Committee Member Greta E. de Jong, Ph.D., Committee Member Erin E. Stiles, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School December 2019 i Abstract B. H. Roberts presented information to the leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January of 1922 that fundamentally challenged the entire premise of their religious beliefs. New research shows that in addition to church leadership, this information was also presented during the neXt few months to a select group of highly educated Mormon men and women outside of church hierarchy. This group represented many aspects of Mormon belief, different areas of eXpertise, and varying approaches to dealing with challenging information. Their stories create a beautiful tapestry of Mormon life in the transition years from polygamy, frontier life, and resistance to statehood, assimilation, and respectability. A study of the people involved illuminates an important, overlooked, underappreciated, and eXciting period of Mormon history.

  • Though It Has Been Known by Different Names, the Young Women Orga
    Though it has been known by different names, the Young Women Orga- nization has always sought to help young women improve themselves, de- velop their talents, serve others, and strengthen their testimonies of Jesus Christ. (© Intellectual Reserve, Inc. All rights reserved.) A Firm Foundation Janet Peterson 12 Young Women of Zion: An Organizational History The Young Women program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has grown from the desires of young women to im- prove themselves, develop their talents, serve others, and strengthen their testimonies of Jesus Christ. The various names of the organization are listed below: • The Young Gentlemen and Ladies’ Relief Society of Nauvoo, 1843 • The Young Ladies’ Department of the Cooperative Retrench- ment Association (Young Ladies’ Retrenchment Association), 1869 • Young Ladies’ National Mutual Improvement Association, 1877 Janet Peterson is a member of the Church Correlation Committee, Materials Evaluation Division. A Firm Foundation • Young Ladies’ Mutual Improvement Association (YLMIA), 1904 • Young Women’s Mutual Improvement Association (YWMIA), 1934 • Aaronic Priesthood MIA, Young Women, 1972 • Young Women, 1974 Though the name has changed several times over the years, the pur- poses have not. Marba C. Josephson, editor of the Improvement Era and general board member, described the goals as “aiding the LDS girl to gain a testimony of the gospel through wholesome lesson work and spiritualized recreation.”1 Church leaders have long recognized the vital role that this auxiliary fills in helping adolescent girls to develop testimonies of the Savior and to become faithful, covenant-keeping women. The programs and procedures have changed to meet the needs of an ever-growing Church population and to help young women face the chal- lenges of their particular eras.
