Home


Came home late Thursday night from a great 7 day church historical site tour. Thoroughly enjoyable. Fantastic weather, beautiful fall leaves, kind people along the way - a totally inspiring trip.

Below is a photo of the first place we visited - John Johnson's farm in Hiram, Ohio. It was here that the Prophet Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon saw a vision and penned these words:

“And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives!

“For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father—

“That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created, and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God” (D&C 76:22–24)

I know this really happened and that it happened at John Johnson's farm.
