Nauvoo

We just took a trip where we were helping my brother Brandon and his family move to Kansas City and my family decided to make a church history tour out of it. Here is the Nauvoo Temple which is so amazing. There are so many stories and places that are so spiritual that it really puts a new perspective on everything. It makes it so real to actually see where the saints were and to hear what they went through.
This is the Carthage Jail which we stopped at on the way to Nauvoo.

It is very hard not to cry here, the spirit is so strong, and to hear the story

while looking at the bullet holes in the door and walls is very humbling. Joseph Smiths Home and grave in Nauvoo.

Liberty Jail

What an amazing experience to actually see where everything happened. I have been to Palmyra New York and to walk through the sacred grove and seen where it all began, what an experience to now come full circle and see where it all ended for Joseph Smith. I can't begin to imagine what they went through because of their faith in the Lord, how hard yet wonderful it must have been! If you ever have the chance to come here, I would definitely recommend doing it!! It is definitely a big testimony growing experience!
