COMMENTS FROM PREVIOUS TOUR MEMBERS:
“All in all, it was by far the best tour I have been on! We gained an understanding of the scriptures and this history that we could not have gained any other way. I highly recommend this to anyone!” Lyle Persch
“There are no words to describe our feelings about the Kirtland trip. It was fantastic in so many ways. Outstanding. Our own testimonies of the Savior and the Prophet Joseph Smith have increased dramatically. We will never be the same. We gained new insight on Sidney Rigdon, Emma Smith, and the Community of Christ. We have a better understanding of their roles in Kirtland. Of course, our visit to the Kirtland Temple was a definite highlight. We felt the spirit there and are grateful to those who care for the temple.” Gary & Katherine Thornley
“It was the most wonderful experience we’ve had in many years. Everyone was so agreeable, it was hard to leave at the end. It was a fantastic deal. It was excellent!” Darrell & Betsy Oborn
