This is Ed welcoming the people to the movie "Joseph Smith, Prophet of the Restoration" in the Legacy Theatre which is in the Joseph Smith Memorial Building (the old Hotel Utah). The theatre is awesome and has an almost I-Max screen - 60' wide and 20.5' high. It seats 507 guests. The movie covers the life of the Prophet from childhood to martyrdom and is very, very well done.

The statue is of Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum who were martyred June 27, 1844 in Carthage, Illinois.

Here is Ed with a statue of Joseph Smith reading James 1:5 - "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God." Joseph Smith questioned which of all the churches he should join. After pondering this scripture from James for some time he retired to the woods near his home and did exactly what James suggested.

In answer to Joseph's prayer, two personages appeared to him, calling him by name, the one introduced the other, "This is my Beloved Son, Hear Him." This statue represents what we call "The First Vision."
