During the 1837 mission to England, the elders used a variety of methods to advertise their meetings. Of the four choices, what one way did they not advertise?
a.                  Making announcements in other churches
b.                  Using handbills
c.                   Hiring Town Criers
d.                  Hiring Deacons from other churches
Yesterday’s answer:
B   Laie, Hawaii
In reference to the Polynesian Cultural Center:   President David O. McKay made it clear that visitors would come to Laie and that their experiences there would have a lasting impact on their lives. President McKay’s dedicatory prayer at the groundbreaking of the Church College of Hawaii (now BYU-Hawaii) gave prophetic vision to Laie’s Church entities, which remains the key element in their mission statements. He prayed “that this college, and the temple, and the town of Laie may become a missionary factor, influencing not thousand, not tens of thousands, but millions of people who will come seeking to know what this town and its significance are.” At the time of this pronouncement, the PCC did not exist; yet, by the year 2000, nearly 27 million people had passed through the little town of Laie while visiting the Center, the single most important entity in the fulfillment of this prophecy.
