On July 24 the State of Utah will celebrate Pioneer Day. On this date in 1846 the first advance party of Mormon Pioneers entered the Salt Lake City valley, and their leader, President Brigham Young looked out of a wagon from his sick-bed, and pronounced “This is the right place“. I am grateful for their stories of courage and faith. This video pays tribute to the struggles and the triumphs of the Mormon Pioneers.
