"There are no words to describe our feelings about the Kirtland trip.  It was fantastic in so many ways.  Karl's lectures were 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 I've had in many years.  Everyone was so agreeable, it was hard to leave at the end.  It was a fantastic deal.  We enjoyed Karl & Joyce Anderson very much! All in all, it was excellent!" Darrell & Betsy Oborn
