About Product:
In Joseph and Emma Smith's world, there were no twinkling lights on Christmas trees or strings of neon decorations across city streets; and by today's standards they might not have celebrated the holidays with much fanfare. But their lives demonstrated the priceless spiritual gifts they shared.
This fascinating book, researched and written by the great-great-granddaughter of Joseph and Emma, chronicles the seventeen years of their marriage and includes descriptions of how the Prophet and his wife celebrated their holidays. Some of these occasions were filled with joy, others with great sadness and tribulation. Generally, their holidays were spent in service to the Church, and always with a spirit of thanksgiving for the restored gospel. From Joseph's obtaining the golden plates in 1827 to his martyrdom in 1844, Emma believed in him and security to further the work of the Lord.
Once you have read Joseph and Emma's story, you will never think of "holidays" in quite the same way again. Their unique legacy reaches far beyond traditional celebrations to touch our hearts and enrich our spirits with messages of hope, peace, and love.
