What I Learned About Women and the Priesthood When Talking to Members of the Community of Christ
By Barbara Morgan Gardner
I recently sat with a number of members of the Community of Christ, previously known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, as part of an interfaith dialogue. I have great love and respect for these people, those I consider brothers and sisters in the faith.

One of the women in the room who had been ordained to the priesthood described her responsibilities and shared her feelings regarding the blessing it was for her to be able to perform priesthood ordinances.

In 1959, at the first GRAMMY Awards broadcast, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir performed “Battle Hymn of the Republic” and won a GRAMMY for the song, which was included on the album, The Lord’s Prayer.

Mormons in the Civil War: Their Own Cavalry + More Fascinating Facts
By Jannalee Sandau
Known as the bloodiest war in American history, the Civil War affected hundreds of thousands of lives. And even though they were removed from the main body of the United States, the Latter-day Saints living in Utah were not immune from all of its consequences.
