  • RS Meeting Episode 1 Transcript
    Episode 1 Stories from General Relief Society Meetings MISSIONARY WORK [BEGIN MUSIC] NARRATOR: From the Conference Center in Salt Lake City, Utah. Welcome to the Mormon Channel. This is Stories from the General Relief Society Meetings on the topic of missionary work. In the missionary guide, Preach My Gospel, the First Presidency writes: “The Lord will reward and richly bless you as you humbly and prayerfully serve. More happiness awaits you than you have ever experienced as you labor among His children.” That message applies to every member of the Church, not just full-time missionaries. In the 2005 General Relief Society Meeting, Sister Anne C. Pingree tells us the joy she felt while serving as a missionary. [END MUSIC] (Sister Anne C. Pingree, General Relief Society Meeting, October 2005) I bear witness, my beloved sisters, that in order to truly be an instrument in the hands of God, in order to fully have that blessing bestowed upon us in "the day of this life" in which we "perform [our] labors," we must, as Elder Maxwell says, "finally submit ourselves" to the Lord. The refining process in my life that led to my testimony of this principle began unexpectedly when in my mid-30s, I received my patriarchal blessing. I had fasted and prayed in preparation, wondering in my heart, "What does the Lord want me to do?" Full of happy anticipation and with our four young children in tow, my husband and I went to the elderly patriarch's home. The blessing he gave me emphasized missionary work—over and over again.

  • The First We 1Gration to Utah (1849)
    The First We 1gration to Utah (1849) B Y T. H . LEWIS • The year 1849 is very important in the history of the Latter-day Saint Mission in Wales, for it witnessed the first emigration of Latter-day Saints from Wales to Salt Lake City. The mission's leader was Captain Dan Jones, who was with the Prophet Joseph Smith in his last days at Carthage. He has become recognized as the founder of the Welsh Mission, although he was not the first person to preach the faith in Wales. With his headquarters at Merthyr Tydfil (South Wales), this fiery pioneer conducted such a vigorous crusade that, in a few years, thousands of Welshmen joined the Church. This article does not propose to deal with those early activities, details of which may be found in the interesting, but rare, LDS Welsh periodicals Prophwyd Y ]ubili (The Prophet of the Jubilee) and U dgorn Seion (Zion's Trumpet). It will suffice to say that in 1849 many Welsh Mormons were ready to accompany their leader to Salt Lake City. One of the last undertakings of Dan Jones before he left Wales was to attend the opening ceremony of the Saints' chapel at Llanelly, Carmarthenshire -a building which still stands. U dgorn Seion contains an interesting account of the departure of the Saints from Swansea (South Wales ) to what was then frequently referred to as California. But it might be better to quote a Swansea newspaper (The Cambrian), February 16, 1849 as it can be regarded as giving a detached and objective description: "Emigration to California "On Tuesday last, Swansea was quite enlivened in consequence of the arrival of several waggons, loaded with luggage, attended by some scores of the 'bold peasantry' of Carmarthenshire and almost an equal number of the inhabitants of Merthyr and the surrounding districts, to­ gether with their families.

    Stephen Markham Stephen Markham, Man of Valour by Mervin LeRoy Gifford Brigham Young University Stephen Markham (1800–1878) accepted the gospel in Ohio in 1837. A prosperous farmer and faithful Saint, he sold his possessions at the counsel of Joseph Smith to help sixty people move from Kirtland to Far West, Mis- souri. During the Missouri Mormon War he was assigned the duties of escorting the Prophet’s family, Emma Smith and her children to safety. During the Nauvoo era he served as a bodyguard for Joseph Smith and again sacri- ficed a new home (moving into a tent) to help the Prophet pay legal fees. He was with the brethren in Carthage, but The Saints Exodus from Missouri was refused entrance to the jail a few hours before the Martyrdom.

  • Llanelli, Carmarthenshire: Site of the First Latter Day Saint Chapel in South Wales Jill Morgan
    Llanelli, Carmarthenshire: Site of the First Latter Day Saint Chapel in South Wales Jill Morgan This blue plaque marks the site of the first purpose-built chapel for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints [‘Mormon’ or LDS church] outside America in the nineteenth century. The original building no longer exists, having been demolished as part of a road-widening scheme in 1995. However the commemorative plaque was installed by Llanelli Community Heritage in 2016. It can be found outside the Eastgate shopping centre, on Stepney Place. As the plaque and photograph below show, the chapel subsequently became the property of Elim Pentecostal Church. The building was just one storey with a pitched roof, and a central front door flanked by large windows. An 1880 map of the centre of Llanelli clearly shows a ‘Chapel – Latter Day Saint’ on Island Place, near its junction with William Street. An earlier map (1852) shows a ‘Mormon chapel’ in the same position. By 1881 the chapel had reportedly been sold to the ‘Josephites’ (a break- off group from the original LDS church, [Photograph: Ron Dennis] who believed that succession in church leadership should be hereditary – i.e. follow down through Joseph Smith’s family rather than through the First Presidency and Quorum of Twelve Apostles; Page 1 of 5 believers in the latter were known as ‘Brighamites,’ after Brigham Young, Joseph Smith’s successor). ‘Mormon’ missionaries first preached in Llanelli in 1845 and found fertile ground – as they did in other industrial areas of South Wales. By early January 1849 missionary Dan Jones reported that there were 55 branches of the LDS church in Wales with a total membership of 3,603, and 1,939 individuals baptized in the past year.

MORMONISM IN EUROPE: A BIBLIOGRAPHIC ESSAY BY J. MICHAEL HUNTER This essay surveys studies useful to serious students and researchers interested in Mormonism in Europe. It focuses on scholarly books, articles, theses, and dissertations, and, out of necessity, is selective. Works of a more popular nature are included only when they contain information valuable to researchers not found in other publications. The studies listed herein are generally categorized by region and country and fall in a somewhat chronological order by topic within those geographic regions. EUROPE The worldwide growth of Mormonism has spurred several attempts at single-volume surveys of international Mormonism, including James R. Moss et al., The International Church (Provo, Utah: Brigham Young University Publications, 1982) and Donald Q. Cannon et al., Unto Every Nation: Gospel Light Reaches Every Land (Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 2003).
