Kimberly Jo Smith’s Journey Discovering Joseph, Emma and Herself

Post by kirtland r.m. »

L.O.L.!!! Check these out..
Brigham Young organized the murder of Joseph, Hyrum and Samuel Smith.
He wanted to take control of the Church.
A corrupt band of Brighamites followed him to the West, and
If any of the Smiths ever went to Utah they would be killed.
Tactics of those who don't want anyone to listen to the gospel, and this from an apostate early brake off group from the church. Now that you(I hope) have had a good chuckle, read this inspiring story with the above information included. A good read!!!https://thirdhour.org/blog/life/kimberly-jo-smith/

I ate with this woman a couple of times while on my Mission in the Oklahoma Tulsa Mission. Very nice. I met her the same day I tried the sausage mcgriddle for the first time.

"Then Merrill took the stage alone. As he sang the first notes of “How Great Thou Art” the same overwhelming feeling returned to Kimberly as when she saw the portraits of Joseph and Emma for the first time.

The Spirit moved her to get to know this man, speaking very specific instructions into her heart: introduce yourself to Merrill and tell him your relationship to Joseph Smith. The teachings of her mother ran through Kimberly’s mind and she resolved to follow the Spirit. So, being a very practical woman, she went to the gift shop during intermission and bought a postcard for all of the brothers to sign.

Unbeknownst to Kimberly, Merrill Osmond had a dream prior to the show. Joseph Smith appeared to him in a large room. A curtain hid a section of the room. Joseph walked to the curtain and pulled it back, revealing a sea of miserable faces. He then pleaded with Merrill,

"This is my posterity; please help them."

The Osmonds came out after the show, as usual, and greeted their guests like family. But the conversation with Kimberly went beyond the normal greeting. She told Merrill, “I’ve seen your website and read your statement of beliefs and your love for Joseph Smith. I just wanted to let you know that he is my great-great grandfather.

Ronald McDonald thanks you! Did you ever dip a cheeseburger into a strawberry shake? Yum! By the way, I once saw the Oscar Myer Wiener Mobile parked in a Salt Lake City hotel parking lot. I wonder if Mirkwood ever had to pull it over driving through Utah County?

We heard her speak in our Ward and tell her story in early part of the first decade. A wonderful woman!
