June 27, 1844
Hey you guys,
So today was an emotional day for me…..today is the anniversery of a day that changed the world forever. On this day in 1844 a mob stormed the jail at Carthage Illinois. There they shot and murdered two men and forever sealed the testimonies of God The Father, His Son Jesus Christ and The Book Of Mormon. The men spoken of did nothing wrong except preach the truth and live their lives the way God would have us live. Of course I’m speaking of the Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum Smith the Patriarch. It is because of their ceragious sacrifice that we as Mormons and as Christians have all that we do today. I think about them often not just today and all I want to say is “thank you”. Thank you for being so creagious, sted fast and strong in your beliefs. Thank you for being a pivital part in the resteration of the TRUE gospel of Jesus Christ. Just knowing that you are family makes me weep. Not with sadness but with jpy to know that I have your blood running in my veigns. I love you both so much.
