Brothers and Sisters,
We have been invited to participate in a Devotional with the Prophets. President and Sister Nelson and Elder and Sister Uchtdorf are speaking in a devotional given in association with the First American Museum in Oklahoma. This museum tells the story of the 39 tribes from the traditions and tribal stories as preserved in their family histories.
The Prophet Joseph Smith was very interested in bringing the Gospel to the early inhabitants of the American Continent. This quest is being continued in efforts to assist the Native Americans to love their history and record family stories and genealogy. Part of this effort is making available within the museum a Family Search interactive display on a smaller scale but similar to the displays in the Family History Center in Salt Lake City. Members of the Church in Kansas and Oklahoma are invited to attend through Zoom. Please join with the invited Native American Tribal Leaders and other members of the church in celebrating our association and with and love for our friends.
The information guiding us to the Devotional in shown in the attachment below.
Grateful for you service and love,
President Jeffrey Bellows
