mothergoose10 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Hi, I'm a new. Have been lurking around for a while. I am from California and then spent 12 years in Utah and then made the trek across the plains to Illinois about 11 years ago. I guess you could say I followed my ancestors footsteps only in reverse! They joined the church in England and Ireland and in answering the Prophets call sailed the seas, pushed the handcarts settling in Utah and then on to California. I have yet to sail that sea to the land of my ancestors and one day I will. It is here in Illinois that my long lost testimony was found and it is here that I am at "home." There is an unseen force that one feels when you travel those roads to Nauvoo. To walk where the Prophet Joseph walked, lived and died is an incredible experience. The gospel has changed my life and I look forward to sharing my testimony and strengthening it further. Quote
