About the Harrisburg, PA Mission
Just a note of interest! This mission is rich in national and church heritage. This state is where our Founding Fathers signed the Declaration of Independence and later brought forth the Constitution of our country. George Washington brought the Revolutionary Army through a crucial winter at Valley Forge, and for some years was the first capitol of the United States. These events opened the way for the restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in its fullness. Our countries destiny as a land of freedom was formed by the critical Civil War battle ofGettysburg and Lincoln’s Gettysburgaddress afterwards.
The Susquehanna River flows through the mission. On its banks near Harmony,Pennsylvania, the Prophet Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery received the Aaronic Priesthood from John the Baptist and were then baptized. Later, only a few miles away Peter, James and John restored the Melchizedek Priesthood to the earth. The book of Mormon was largely translated in Pennsylvania. This is the state where Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, Bruce R. McConkie, Alvin R. Dyer, and other great missionaries brought many souls into the Church. (Excerpts from welcome letter from President Donald E. Pugh, Mission President)
As you can see, this is an exciting mission with rich history. Taylor is excited to share his experiences with you!
