Download or read book Scouting in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints written by Kevin V Hunt and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Says Elder Vaughan J. Featherstone: Here you have the finest history of Scouting in the Church ever written. The research was impeccable. It contains some of the greatest quotes of some of the greatest leaders of the Kingdom in this dispensation. It is a treasury of the greatest Scouters, concepts, philosophies, principles and especially History of Boy Scouts of America and the Church. This book is a classic and should be on every Bishop and Stake President's shelf.Kevin Hunt's multiple callings and service with all the dimensions of Scouting has qualified him to write this profoundly detailed book on the Principles of Scouting. You will appreciate the marvelous research back over the 100 years the Church has sponsored Scouting. I know of no one who has collected quotes from more Brethren, sources and his own personal experiences than Kevin Hunt has done.The Scouting program within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is indeed a treasured history to be studied and remembered. ...So it should be with our memories of our Scouting associations and experiences. Even though we will no longer have official church affiliation with Scouting, the legacy is there. How can we ever forget the training received, the recitation and daily living of the Scout Oath and Law? How can we dismiss the Scouting traditions so ingrained in us through family generations? How can we forget those special times around the campfire, the brotherhood shared with our brothers - fellow Scouts and leaders - our Scouting brothers? Scouting will and should live on in each of us. That is why this book is written ... it need not be the final chapter.All former Scouts, leaders, parents, teachers, trainers, and everyone who has been a part of Scouting should commit to keeping the Scouting legacy alive. We should each commit anew each day to remember and live the Scouting ideals in our own lives. And we need to record and share our Scouting experiences with our progeny. Who knows but what our Scouting experiences will some day be quoted as are our ancestor stories or even the stories and experiences of Nephi and other great men who have lived before? What will be our Scouting legacy that we leave behind? As noted already, the Scouting principles that we have learned are eternal. Though the delivery methods and programs may change, the principles will live on.It is in this spirit that you are given opportunity to read and study again of the Scouting legacy within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It truly is a grand legacy and there is much that is good and great as we celebrate the past associations and then together begin new chapters in the days ahead.

Download or read book The Pioneer Camp of the Saints written by Will Bagley and published by . This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The official journal of the Brigham Young pioneer company is made available for the first time in this book. The arrival of Latter-day Saints in the Valley of the Great Salt Lake is one of the major events in the history of the LDS church and the West. Thomas Bullock, the author of this account, was the official journal keeper of that party of pioneers. Bullock was the "Clerk of the Camp of Israel," an English scribe who is perhaps more responsible than any other person for the vast documentary record of the LDS church in the the mid-nineteenth century. Though he wrote thousands of pages ultimately released under other men's names, he remains a relatively obscure figure in Western History. An intensely personal document, Bullock's account rises above its status as the "official" journal. He shares his doubts, his complaints, his personal assessments of his fellow travelers throughout the pages of the journal. This remarkable record presents in detail the daily reality of a journey that has become an American legend. From Nauvoo to Salt Lake and back to the Missouri River, Bullock's journals from September 1846 to October 1847 paint a colorful and personal picture of both the Mormon Trail and the suffering of the poverty-stricken Saints during their struggle across Iowa in 1846. They tell the legendary tale of Brigham Young's pioneer company-the beginning of a great exodus across the Plains and Rockies to the Great Basin Kingdom. Life at Winter Quarters, the renowned "miracle of the Quail" at the Poor Camp on the Mississippi River, detailed accounts of buffalo hunts, dances and celebrations, and other trail events are recorded. Jim Bridger's famous meeting with Brigham Young and other leaders of the pioneer party was described in detail by Bullock. Bridger's comments on the Valley of the Great Salt Lake, the Indians, agriculture and the West in general show the breadth of knowledge of mountain men like Bridger. The interview also gives evidence of the unanswered questions still plaguing the Saints as they neared their destination. With maps, illustrations, bibliography and index, this work is a major contribution to the history of overland migration, the LDS church, and the wider West. The book provides insight into the impressions of a devout European immigrant of the great American West. An appendix containing biographical data on Mormon pioneers is included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of the Frontier scout in the US Army during the period of westward expansion, was often far more important than that of the commanding officer. They possessed a priceless knowledge of the geography, people and characteristics of the great, unknown American hinterland and from the earliest days of exploration, the US Army depended on its scouts to guide troops across the plains and through the mountains as they guarded the nation's frontier settlements. This book tells the colourful story of these frontier men, covering many famous scouts such as 'Wild Bill' Hickok and 'Buffalo Bill' Cody.
