The photographs feature many of Bishop Scanlan's successors and many Utah Catholic institutions.

One example is St. Ann's Orphanage, which operated for that purpose for more than 50 years. On the May 24, 1902, the News noted that the orphanage had been moved from a small space on 100 South into more spacious quarters thanks to a gift from Senator and Mrs. Thomas Kearns

Princess Sirindhorn realizes the problems facing children and youth living in these remote areas. They face high health risks, suffering from malnutrition, illness and lack of education. The princess is actively involved in partnering with private agencies, both local and international, to facilitate the development of students at the hill tribe schools educationally, health-wise and emotionally to reach their full potential as future citizens of Thailand.

Pondering sure can open us up to revelation. Just look at some of the visions various presidents of the Church have been enwrapt in as they pondered a question or the scriptures and went to the Lord.

Adam-ondi-Ahman

Prior to his death, the repentant Adam held a meeting of his faithful posterity in a valley designated "Adam-ondhi-Ahman:"

53 Three years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch, and Methuselah, who were all high priests, with the residue of his posterity who were righteous, into the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and there bestowed upon them his last blessing.

54 And the Lord appeared unto them, and they rose up and blessed Adam, and called him Michael, the prince, the archangel.

55 And the Lord administered comfort unto Adam, and said unto him: I have set thee to be at the head; a multitude of nations shall come of thee, and thou art a prince over them forever.

[LDSapologist71]

56 And Adam stood up in the midst of the congregation; and, notwithstanding he was bowed down with age, being full of the Holy Ghost, predicted whatsoever should befall his posterity unto the latest generation. (D&C 107:53)

Adam received a book from the archangel Michael?

how do you interpret that? Michael = Adam

[Bureyeanne]

@omiolo2

The book of Enoch mentions 7 Archangels. It was probably falsely assumed that Micheal was that archangel.

[omiolo]

@Bureyeanne

multiple Michaels??

[Bureyeanne]

no. I am saying that the someone made a mistake. (assuming the text accurate anyway.) So if the original text read something about an archangel an scribe may have come in later and added Michael.

[omiolo]

thanks for the clarification!
