Lost Book of Mormon Goes VIRAL at Salt Lake City Airport
Imagine losing the most meaningful item tied to your new faith just before your flight. That’s what happened to Jackie Lonergan, a recent convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This week, while flying home to New York, she realized she had lost two priceless items: a custom-painted Book of Mormon and a journal filled with personal spiritual insights.
Jackie spent hours searching the Salt Lake City airport with no luck, so she posted about her loss in a Facebook group. What followed was incredible—her post went viral, gaining hundreds of comments and offers to help. Delta, airport staff, and even artists jumped in to assist, with one friend finding a replacement Book of Mormon at a thrift store and offering to customize it for her.
Though Jackie’s items are still missing, the overwhelming support has been a powerful reminder of faith, community, and hope. It’s a beautiful story of how people come together to support “the one.”
