“All I have to do is keep my spirit, feelings and conscience like a sheet of blank paper, and let the Spirit and power of God write upon it what He pleases. When He writes, I will read; but if I read before He writes, I am very likely to be wrong”

Brigham Young
Brigham Young was a significant figure in the history of the Latter-day Saints, playing a pivotal role in the expansion of the movement into the American West. Born on June 1, 1801, in Whitingham, Vermont, he became a convert to Mormonism and a close associate of Joseph Smith, the movement's founder. Following Smith's death, Young assumed leadership of the LDS Church and led its members to the Salt Lake Valley in present-day Utah. His vision and leadership were instrumental in the establishment of Salt Lake City and the surrounding communities. He passed away on August 29, 1877. more
