    i then started on my journey while he
  • 00:00:44
    stood amazed
  • 00:00:45
    and did not awake from his astonishment
  • 00:00:47
    till i had gained perhaps 200 yards
  • 00:00:50
    he now came hallowing after me shouting
  • 00:00:53
    to his dog to seize me
  • 00:00:55
    the dog being one of the largest i ever

  • 00:01:26
    i soon lost sight of the officer and dog
  • 00:01:28
    and have not seen them since
  • 00:01:32
    shortly thereafter elder pratt rejoins
  • 00:01:34
    his mission companions
  • 00:01:35
    a few miles down the road
  • 00:01:43
    [Music]
  • 00:01:50
    parley oliver cowdery peter whitmer and
  • 00:01:52
    zyba peterson
  • 00:01:54
    are called on a mission to the lamanites
  • 00:01:56
    on the missouri frontier
  • 00:01:57
    where andrew jackson's outrageous indian
  • 00:01:59
    removal act had just put them
  • 00:02:01
    these young missionaries are stoked to
  • 00:02:04
    teach the descendants of a people
  • 00:02:05
    they've read about in the book of mormon
  • 00:02:07
    still this mission means leaving in
  • 00:02:09
    october
  • 00:02:10
    and walking over 1200 miles into the
  • 00:02:13
    frozen frontier
  • 00:02:14
    in what would come to be known as the
  • 00:02:16
    winter of the deep snow
  • 00:02:18
    fortunately they aren't alone in this
  • 00:02:20
    massive undertaking as the lord assures
  • 00:02:22
    them that he would be with them
  • 00:02:24
    and go in their midst now while passing
  • 00:02:27
    through northeastern ohio
  • 00:02:28
    parley felt impressed to visit his
  • 00:02:30
    former friend and pastor
  • 00:02:32
    sidney rigdon sydney's large
  • 00:02:34
    congregation was actively trying to
  • 00:02:36
    become
  • 00:02:37
    just like the church christ formed with
  • 00:02:39
    his apostles
  • 00:02:40
    so parley bore powerful testimony to
  • 00:02:43
    sydney
  • 00:02:43
    that he'd actually found christ's
  • 00:02:45
    restored church
  • 00:02:47
    for real he begged sidney to read the
  • 00:02:50
    book of mormon
  • 00:02:50
    and asked to preach to his congregation
  • 00:02:53
    the rigdans and their six kids lived in
  • 00:02:55
    a home given them by their congregation
  • 00:02:58
    and would lose it along with sydney's
  • 00:03:00
    job if they converted to this new faith
  • 00:03:02
    however sydney and his wife phoebe
  • 00:03:05
    prayed and found peace
  • 00:03:06
    that it was the right decision i have
  • 00:03:09
    counted the cost
  • 00:03:11
    it is my desire to do the will of god
  • 00:03:14
    come life
  • 00:03:14
    or come death sydney was like
  • 00:03:18
    a modern-day john the baptist he'd
  • 00:03:20
    prepared his group for the greater truth
  • 00:03:22
    to come
  • 00:03:23
    sydney's entire congregation recognized
  • 00:03:25
    the truth
  • 00:03:26
    and most were baptized one night the
  • 00:03:29
    missionaries taught a large group of
  • 00:03:31
    sydney's congregation
  • 00:03:32
    late into the evening at the morley home
  • 00:03:34
    and 17 people were baptized
  • 00:03:37
    in the middle of winter these
  • 00:03:40
    conversions led to more
  • 00:03:41
    and more people flocking to hear this
  • 00:03:43
    new message and oliver had to write
  • 00:03:45
    joseph
  • 00:03:46
    requesting tons more copies of the book
  • 00:03:48
    of mormon
  • 00:03:49
    amazingly four men in four weeks
  • 00:03:52
    with god more than doubled the church
  • 00:03:55
    membership
  • 00:03:56
    clearly the lord was helping them
  • 00:04:00
    the missionaries loved teaching in ohio
  • 00:04:02
    but they knew their mission call was to
  • 00:04:04
    teach the lamanites
  • 00:04:06
    so after establishing some branches in
  • 00:04:08
    ohio and ordaining men to be their
  • 00:04:10
    leaders
  • 00:04:10
    they set off into the wilderness they
  • 00:04:14
    walk
  • 00:04:14
    for days on end in snow above their
  • 00:04:17
    knees
  • 00:04:18
    without seeing anyone or finding a barn
  • 00:04:20
    or shelter to sleep in
  • 00:04:22
    they even once try traveling by boat but
  • 00:04:24
    the water is too frozen
  • 00:04:27
    on top of that they have no waterproof
  • 00:04:29
    clothing and carry all their
  • 00:04:31
    food sleeping bags and of course as many
  • 00:04:34
    copies of the book of mormon as they can
  • 00:04:36
    manage
  • 00:04:37
    talk about a tough mission wow
  • 00:04:41
    after weeks of intense struggle they
  • 00:04:43
    arrive in independence missouri
  • 00:04:45
    a few miles east of the indian territory
  • 00:04:48
    and begin preaching to the delaware
  • 00:04:50
    indians under chief kick the wienend
  • 00:04:52
    yeah say that three times fast wanting
  • 00:04:55
    to learn more
  • 00:04:56
    the chief says we will meet together and
  • 00:04:59
    you shall read
  • 00:05:00
    and teach us more concerning the book of
  • 00:05:02
    our fathers
  • 00:05:03
    so the missionaries eagerly begin
  • 00:05:05
    teaching large groups from his tribe
  • 00:05:08
    but then a government agent threatens to
  • 00:05:10
    arrest them for preaching without
  • 00:05:12
    permits
  • 00:05:13
    what permits who knew
  • 00:05:16
    so the elders are forced to leave oh
  • 00:05:20
    total bummer parley's attempt to get the
  • 00:05:22
    proper paperwork is unsuccessful
  • 00:05:25
    and they may have felt their mission
  • 00:05:26
    among the lamanites was a failure
  • 00:05:28
    but was it really well though no native
  • 00:05:32
    americans were baptized
  • 00:05:34
    numerous church branches were
  • 00:05:35
    established including in kirtland and
  • 00:05:37
    independence
  • 00:05:38
    and remember parley and stewboy yeah
  • 00:05:41
    even that fiasco led to the organization
  • 00:05:44
    of a branch with 60 members
  • 00:05:45
    because of a book of mormon parley left
  • 00:05:47
    with simeon carter
  • 00:05:49
    this crazy difficult mission more than
  • 00:05:52
    doubled church membership to over a
  • 00:05:54
    thousand members
  • 00:05:56
    you know what sometimes the journey is
  • 00:05:59
    as important as the destination
  • 00:06:02
    next time the growing church gets a
  • 00:06:04
    bombshell of an announcement
