Blessings derived through begging

Image result for begging
Pioneer Margaret McNeil Ballard said that when her and her family entered the Salt Lake Valley it was necessary for them to beg for what?

a.      Land to build a house

b.      Clothes

c.       Re-baptism

d.      Food

Yesterday’s answer:

c.   The sacrament

Ogden built a tabernacle, in use by the late 1850’s, that could seat 1,200. Nevertheless, as late as 1877, the Juvenile Instructor reported that many children had never partaken of the sacrament because “in many places the meeting houses are too small for them to meet with the grown people. And therefore they have to stop at home while their parents attend meeting.”
