Becoming a Great Benefit to Our Fellow Beings
Spencer J. Condie April 2002 Priesthood Session
As a young man of 27, Wilford Woodruff was ordained a priest on November 5, 1834. Eight days later he began a two-year mission in the southern states. One night he and his companion found lodging with a family who provided them with a bare floor for a bed, which he described as “pretty hard after walking sixty miles without anything to eat.”
