D&C 103 & 105 I Zion's Camp and Zelph's Bones? I Come Follow Church History I Lynne Hilton Wilson
From May to June 1834, approximately 230 men, women, and children marched to Missouri to help the Saints who had been expelled from Jackson County, Missouri, the previous year. This expedition, known today as Zion’s Camp, was initially called the Camp of Israel. It was formed after Joseph Smith received a revelation in February 1834 commanding him to call up the strength of the Lord’s house to redeem Zion from its enemies. The revelation instructed Church leaders to recruit at least 100, and preferably 500, men to travel to Missouri. In March, Joseph Smith and others traveled through New York to obtain volunteers and funding for the expedition.
And don't forget Zelph's bones! What were they? Were they real? Were they a figment of Jospeh's imagination? Were the records of the experience accurate? Join Lynne Hilton Wilson as she dives into the context and controversies of this exciting part of Latter-day Saint Church History.
