US History & Church History Tour

We started out our tour flying into Washington DC. There we took a whirlwind tour of the famous city.

We were able to watch the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers.

Washington DC Temple ( It is under repair from the earthquake a year ago.)

Then we moved on to New York and spent some time at the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

Niagara Falls

Monument to the birthplace of Joseph Smith in Sharon Vermont.

Entrance to the Sacred Grove in Palmyra.

Kirtland Temple

These pictures are just a few of many of our trip. We had a wonderful time learning about the importance of our US history in the furthering of the gospel. Being able to attend the Hill Cumorah Pageant was super!!
