Mormon Trail Center Tours

Sweet Sister Harris, who's been here less than 2 weeks, is preparing her pioneer stories and scriptures to organize in her Book of Mormon for when she gives a tour. She always has a smile and a cheery word for everyone.

Sometimes tourists want to skip the tour with the sisters and just "go around on their own." These fine people do not realize they are missing out on some amazing pioneer stories they may never have opportunity to hear again as well as the opportunity to become friends with the sweetest sisters in the world. Every tour at the Mormon Trail Center is individualized and unique with a marvelous display of artifacts, including a pioneer cabin, handcart and covered wagon. The tours are truly a never to be forgotten time of learning about the history and faith of Mormon pioneers and of their countless contributions to the United States of America.

BYU Women's Volleyball team comes to Omaha for a game. They are such amazing and beautiful women.

 Enjoying Zone Conference.

 Everyone singing "Away in a Manger"

 Having been fed by the Spirit of the Lord to help us change our hearts to feel more charity - and having been fed a delicious meal by a Relief Society group, and having so much more to enjoy - we then settled in for picture taking. 

Such wonderful missionaries! Love them!

 Does it look like we're snowed in? Well, we were till about noon the next day.

 These enduring and endearing pioneers had to trudge through snow once again.

 Looks like an enchanted wonderland!

 Can you see the Winterquarters Temple through the snowy branches?

 Adorable sister missionaries with a pure testimony of the Savior, Jesus Christ. They love to share the truths of God's plan of happiness for all His children. 

 More beautiful sister missionaries who have personal understanding of the Atonement - the plan by which we can repent and let go of our sins and give our will to the Lord. They can't help but share their joy in the gospel as they are filled with the Love of the Lord for each other and for everyone who comes in to the Mormon Trail Center as well as strangers they meet. 

 This sweet sister is angelic.

 This is Sis. B. She loves the Savior and loves to share her thankfulness for her blessings. She is best known for reminding others that they need to listen to the thoughts that help them feel happy and ignore the thoughts that cause them to feel discouraged. 

 Berries at the Kanesville Tabernacle.

It's wonderful to be missionaries and wonderful to have a warm, comfortable place to find shelter from the storm. (the gospel of Jesus Christ is the warm, comfortable place to find shelter from the "storms of life").

November in the Nebraska Omaha Mission

Our great Mission President Weston and his dear wife and talented son! (He can play "Look for the Bare Necessities" on the piano)Darling sisters. Missing Sis. Robertson!

Diligent missionaries!

Goodbye Sis. Atkin. We love you and Sis. Jones!

The Missionaries of Omaha/Papillion Zone

This is about a third of the missionaries in the NOM mission, with many more scheduled to come soon. What a wonderful force for righteousness  - all on the Lord's side!

We see this beautiful symbol of sacrifice of those who are dedicated to compassion, cooperation and charity every time we go into the memorial room at the Mormon Trail Center.
