We enjoyed visiting the church sites in St. George. We learned who the town was named after, George Smith and he gave potatoes to the saints and saved them. This is the St. George Tabernacle.
Interesting set up for the stairs.
Jessica was able to play the organ.
Lorenzo Snow was at this pulpit telling the members of the church that they needed to pay their tithing.
My Great Great Grandfather helped to build this Tabernacle and the St George Temple. His name is William Craig Burt.
We went to a mortuary in town and saw this beautiful statue.
We visited the Jacob Hamlin home, a pioneer who was a peacemaker among the Indians.
We also visited Brigham Young's Winter home.
