VACATION: Harmony

On the way to Palmyra, about 5 miles east of the interstate, are the remnants of Harmony, PA.

This is the place where the Aaronic Priesthood was restored,
and most of the Book of Mormon was translated.



A local member posted a map to get behind the fenced railroad tracks and find the path to the Susquehanna River. We drove down an almost unnavigable cinder road to find the path.


The minute you stepped on the path, you felt the spirit!


This was the place... very sacred.








Across the street is the Hale farm, where Emma grew up. It is partly restored. Harmony was our favorite church history stop on the trip!

I miss being so close to early church history. It just really helps remind you the founding principles of the gospel.
