The Sacred Grove


 This stand of trees near Palmyra, NY is the site where young Joseph Smith retired to pray. During this prayer a remarkable vision opened and Joseph was able to communicate directly with God the Father and His son Jesus Christ. We don't know the exact spot where this vision took place, just somewhere in this grove of trees. Joseph was just 14 years of age, but was to become the Prophet and founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The full account of this visitation can be found in the book The Doctrine and Covenants of the Church. Enjoy
