"never-ending happiness"

True, enduring happiness, with the accompanying strength, courage, and capacity to overcome the greatest difficulties, will come as you center your life in Jesus Christ. Obedience to His teachings provides a secure ascent in the journey of life. That takes effort. While there is no guarantee of overnight results, there is the assurance that, in the Lord's time, solutions will come, peace will prevail, and happiness will be yours." Richard G. Scott, Ensign, Nov. 2006, 41

Kanesville Tabernacle

Our last stop on our month long trip was the Kanesville Tabernacle in what is now known as Council Bluff, Iowa. In the Kanesville Tabernacle, built by 200 pioneers in just two and a half weeks, Brigham Young was sustained as the second prophet and President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The current log tabernacle is a replica of the original meeting hall.

The tabernacle now serves as a visitors' center, where you can learn more about the epic history of the Latter-day Saints' migration westward. They have a movie about the Mormon Battalion that is only shown there and at the San Diego Mormon Battalion visitors center. If you are traveling I-80 stop and see it.
