The "Yellow" Resource material was given out at this last meeting. This information included books that can be read to help prepare for the Trek, some suggested songs of Zion and lesson plans for developing some of the devotionals needed by Ma and Pa couples. Please use these resources to know the stories of this great and grand experience so they can be shared with the youth as they make their own trek through the plains of Wyoming.
If you are interested in purchasing the book: "Journal of the Trail" by Glazier and Clark, it will be available at the Kick off devotional for $5.
"As on the roads the carts were pull'd
'Twould very much surprise the world,
To see the old and feeble dame
Thus lend a hand to pull the same!
And maidens fair will dance and sing,
Young men more happy than a king,
And children, too will laugh and play;
Their strength increasing day by day.
For some must push and some must pull,
As we go marching up the hill;
So merrily on the way we go
Until we reach the Valley-O!"
One verse and the chorus from "The Handcart Song"
The songs that the youth will be singing at some point of the Trek will be "They The Builders of the Nation, Hymn #36; Come, Come Ye Saints, Hymn #30 and "Carry On", Hymn #255
