Final Performance

(Posted by Craig)

In just a few minutes we will be off to our final performance. I can't believe how fast it has gone. It has been so great. The weather has been wonderful, the Spirit has been powerful, and we have loved it.

There are volumes of things that I would love to share about our experience, but there has been so little time to put it all down in words. I hope to post a couple more times before we return, but some things we may just have to tell you about when we return.

But as we have strolled the streets of Nauvoo and attended the sites and the vignettes and participated in the pageant, I was reminded of something the Prophet Joseph Smith said while he was here:

Generations yet unborn will dwell with peculiar delight upon the scenes that we have passed through, the privations that we have endured; the untiring zeal that we have manifested; the all but insurmountable difficulties that we have overcome in laying the foundation of a work that brought about the glory and blessing which they will realize; a work that God and angels have contemplated with delight for generations past.

It has been with delight that we have dwelt on the scenes of old Nauvoo.

Wish us well on our closing night...
