APPEARANCE The Mormon Tabernacle of Bear Lake Stake in Paris, Idaho, is in the Romanesque revival style. It was designed by architect Joseph Don Carlos Young of Salt Lake City, a son of Brigham Young, and constructed under the supervision of Thomas G. of Logan, Utah. * Materials for the imposing Victorian structure, with its six- story bell tower, were gathered from the surrounding countryside, Red sandstone, the principal material, was quarried in Indian Creek Canyon, eighteen miles away, and hauled around the lake by horse and ox teams. In winter, much of the stone was sledded across the ice of Bear Lake. The stone cutting and carving were m done by a,family of Swiss masons, recently arrived in Utah. rn Jacob Tueller and his three sons moved to Paris to work on the tabernacle, and starting in 1884, devoted four years to the project. All of the wood used in the structure, including the shingles, H was cut in the canyons nearby. Most of the work was done by TO the Mormon settlers themselves, each contributing his own skill. C A number of fine craftsmen in wood shaped the interior detail; expecially noteworthy is the work of James, Nye on the pulpit n and choir ceiling. Overall dimensions are 127'6" x 73'4". H The building is in excellent condition and has not been altered since its dedication, September 15, 1889. /«£>•'•'-<\\A!.//.^V , f -- 5iV J' j. \--l A' ••. ^A %G' \v »-' s-', ' * ._, ||||i||S|||||l|:; PERIOD (Check One or More as Appropriate) Pre-Columbian | | 16th Century | | 18th Century 20th Century 15th Century [~~1 17th Century ( | 19th Century SPECIFIC DATE(S) (7f Applicable and Known)_____September 15, 1889 AREAS OF SIGNIFICANCE (Check One or More as Appropriate) Abor iginal Education [ | Political Urban Planning a Prehistoric | | Engineering | | Religion/Phi­ Other (Specify) Historic Q Industry | | losophy s Architectural Agriculture | | Invention | | Science a Art D Landscape Sculpture a Commerce | | Architecture | | Social/Human­ Communications [ | Literature || itarian a Conservation ( | Military Q Theater a Music PI Transportation [ | STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE (Include Personages, Dates, Events, Etc.) A Mormon Stake includes a group of local church congregations z (known as wards), and in many areas of the Mormon intermountain o west, stake tabernacles are regional community ^entres. (The Salt Lake tabernacle in Temple Square is the best known of H" these.) u Paris, the earliest of the Bear Lake Mormon settlements, was ID established September 26, 1863, and a number of other Mormon towns followed in the summer of 1864. Increased population in the valley led to formation of the Bear Lake Stake of Zion, June 20, 1869. Brigham Yoi/ng and a number of Mormon apostles oo came up for the occasion. A general reorganization of the Z stake, August 25-26, 1877, preceded the building of the tabernacle after 1884. Aside from its regional community LJLJ importance, this tabernacle is of unusual architectual interest. UJ History of Bear Lake Pioneers, compile*d by E.P. Haddock and D.H. Matthews , ed. F.

    North Downtown Heritage Tour The early history of Salt Lake City is dominated by the story of its Mormon settlers. These settlers came to Utah as a centrally-organized group dedicated to establishing their vision of a perfect society—the Kingdom of God on earth. Accordingly, there was no distinction between religious and secular life in early Salt Lake City. Leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints directed the community’s economic life, shaped its social life, and even molded its family life. The north end of Salt Lake City’s downtown is a good place to view buildings and sites that reflect the city’s early Mormon heritage. Church leaders, cultural institutions, business enter- prises, and church offices tended to cluster near Temple Square, the geographic heart of the Mormon utopia. Within 20 years of Salt Lake City’s founding, the commu- nity began to diversify. The completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 made it much easier for immigrants from around the world to reach Utah. Not all the people who settled in Salt Lake City fit the Mormon vision of members of a perfect society. Nor did these new immigrants always share the Mormon community’s goals. This tour also highlights some of the buildings and sites that represent Salt Lake City’s growth and diversification after its settlement period. Your walk through north downtown’s history will take about one hour. The tour ends on Main Street just one half block south of the starting point at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.

  • One of the Great Strengths of the Church of Jesus Christ Of
    A Firm Foundation David J. Whittaker 28 Mormon Administrative and Organizational History: A Source Essay ne of the great strengths of The Church of Jesus Christ of O Latter-day Saints is its institutional vitality. Expanding from six members in 1830 to fourteen million in 2010, its capacity to govern and manage an ever-enlarging membership with a bureaucracy flexible enough to provide for communication and growth but tight enough to ensure control and stability is an important but little-known story. The essential functions of the Church were doctrinally mandated from its earliest years, and the commands to keep records have assured that accounts of its activities have been maintained. Such historical records created the essential informational basis necessary to run the institu- tion. These records range from membership to financial to the institu- tional records of the various units of the Church, from the First Presi- dency to branches in the mission field. David J. Whittaker is the curator of Western and Mormon Manuscripts, L. Tom Perry Special Collections, Harold B. Lee Library, and associate professor of history at Brigham Young University. A Firm Foundation The study of Latter-day Saint ecclesiology has been a challenge until recently. As yet, the best studies remain in scholarly monographs, often unknown or unavailable. It is the purpose of this essay to highlight this emerging literature by complementing the essays assembled in this volume.

  • Reclamation and Collaboration in Joseph Smith’S Theology Making
    ARTICLES “THE PERFECT UNION OF MAN AND WOMAN”: RECLAMATION AND COLLABORATION IN JOSEPH SMITH’S THEOLOGY MAKING Fiona Givens Any church that is more than a generation old is going to suffer the same challenges that confronted early Christianity: how to preach and teach its gospel to myriad peoples, nationalities, ethnic groups, and societies, without accumulating the cultural trappings of its initial geographical locus. As Joseph Milner has pointed out, the rescue of the “precious ore” of the original theological deposit is made particularly onerous, threatened as it is by rapidly growing mounds of accumulating cultural and “ecclesiastical rubbish.”1 This includes social accretions, shifting sen- sibilities and priorities, and the inevitable hand of human intermediaries. For Joseph Smith, Jr., the task of restoration was the reclamation of the kerygma of Christ’s original Gospel, but not just a return to the early Christian kerygma. Rather, he was attempting to restore the Ur- Evangelium itself—the gospel preached to and by the couple, Adam and Eve (Moses 6:9). In the present paper, I wish to recapitulate a common thread in Joseph’s early vision, one that may already be too 1. Joseph Milner, The History of the Church of Christ, vol. 2 (London: T.

  • Inside the Salt Lake Temple: Gisbert Bossard's 1911 Photographs
    ARTICLES AND ESSAYS Inside the Salt Lake Temple: Gisbert Bossard's 1911 Photographs Kent Walgren THE BANNER HEADLINE ON SUNDAY'S 17 September 1911 edition of the Salt Lake Tribune greeted morning readers: "Gilbert [sic] L. Bossard, Convert, is Named as One Who Photographed Interior of Salt Lake Temple. Re- venge Is Sought by Him after Trouble with the Church; Has Left the City." The sensational article began: No local news story published in recent years has caused so much com- ment as the exclusive story in yesterday's Tribune regarding the taking of photographic views in the Salt Lake Mormon temple by secret methods. ... The most important development of the day was the identification, through efforts of a Tribune representative, of the man who took the views. This man is Gilbert L. Bossard, a German convert to Mormonism, who fell out with the church authorities and secretly took the pictures in a spirit of revenge.1 For faithful Mormons, the thought that someone had violated the sacred confines of the eighteen-year-old Salt Lake temple, which he desecrated by photographing, was "considered as impossible as profaning the sa- cred Kaaba at Mecca."2 1. Unless otherwise stated, the sources for all quoted material are news stories in either the Salt Lake Tribune, 16-21 Sept. 1911, or in the Deseret Evening News, 16 Sept. 1911.
