NAUBOO, Illinois – On Saturday, February 1st, a lively wind and blue sky gathered in Nauvoo, Illinois to celebrate Egypt. After a quick breakfast they walked from the Cultural Hall to Perley Street and then to the edge of the Mississippi River.

For the first time, most members of this honorary guard were young men between the ages of 12 and 18, and they marched on behalf of the former Nauvoo Legion members. Walking behind them was more than 20 young women with flags raised, walking on behalf of individual pioneers.

“To strengthen our faith in Jesus Christ, we want to provide new generations with personal experiences on the sacred ground,” says Gary Jesschey, a senior missionary at Pleasant Grove, Utah. described as a senior missionary who led the planning committee along with his wife, Sister Lisa Jessche. .

“We’ve been working hard to get into the world,” said Ben Bailey, 14, of Cedar Falls, Iowa. We actually did have something to do and it felt like we were part of history rather than talking about it. ”

Betsy Eckersley, 14, of Quincy, Illinois, agreed. I’m proud that they are my ancestors. I hope everyone knows how wonderful they are. ”

The event commemorates the time 179 years ago, on February 4, 1846, when the first wagon of early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints left Naubou.

Mark J. Mokotel, a temple recorder at Nauvoo Illinois Temple, opened the opening from the stairs of the Cultural Hall about his 24-hour effort to complete over 5,000 temple rituals before members of the Church of Jesus Christ. The saints provided a statement about how they were strengthened by their temple covenants for a painstaking journey into the Salt Lake Valley.

As the two drummers signaled the time to begin the queue, many family members and friends gathered behind the representatives of the Nauboo Legion and the flag bearer to walk in honor of their ancestors and other pioneers. The carriage lifted the back. When everyone arrives on the banks of the Mississippi River, most gather on the slopes near the Pioneer Memorial, and we are grateful that warm apple cider keeps us from the cold.

They listened when Anne Thomas, a Nauvoo Illinois stock, offered a comment about the importance of maintaining the contracts that the early saints first made.

Thomas pointed out whether the saints had only their baptismal covenants to keep them for years before the temple was built, and she asked the young people in the crowd. Remember the sacrifices (of Christ) in the garden of Gethsemane and in Golgotha? Do we use Saint Cra every week to renew and strengthen our relationship with him? ”

She urged young people to work to gain an eternal perspective on maintaining the contract.
