Looking at the teen with long blond hair standing in the middle of the lit-up stage, Adam Levine made an almost prophetic prediction.
Heather James was raised (mostly) in California, met her husband, Harvey, at BYU, and has two adult children. After 35 years (and with much trepidation), she recently applied to BYU to finish her bachelor’s degree. Heather is a recent brain cancer survivor and gives thanks every day for her life, her faith, and her Savior who was by her side every step of the way. She loves history, puzzles, ice cream and playing the piano (not necessarily in that order). Heather and her husband live in Columbia, Missouri.
In a match that was years in the making, on a stage in the Salt Lake LDS Conference Center, two American icons formed an unlikely union, and the result was a remarkable night of music, with an encore still to come. Who knew James Taylor and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir would ever even appear in the same sentence, yet alone on the same stage, but there they were Friday night. Tonight they will do it all over again.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is, in large measure, a gospel of stories — stories that illustrate and illuminate, stories that inspire and encourage, stories that build faith and foster assurance, stories that reprove and admonish on occasion.
The real heroes of the story are women such as Jane Elizabeth Manning James, a free black woman who was baptized into the LDS Church in the early 1840s and then traveled with a small group of black converts from Connecticut to Illinois in winter, the last 800 miles on foot. “We walked until our shoes were worn out, and our feet became sore and cracked open and bled until you could see the whole print of our feet with blood on the ground,” James recounted in a brief autobiography several decades later. James walked to Utah with the Mormon pioneers in 1847 and remained a devoted member of the Church until her death in 1908, outliving its first five prophets. Upon her death Church leaders recognized James as a pillar of faithfulness—after having denied her access to Mormonism’s most sacred temple rituals by virtue of her race.
MR says: Just two years old at the time, Marie James was immortalized on Temple Square when she was sculpted into the bronze statue of a man and woman pulling two children in a handcart.
