"If you had joined the church in England in the 1850's would you have come to Zion?"
"If you had joined the church in England in the 1850's would you have come to Zion?"
In 1850, Catherine Waters of Lancashire, England, meets Mr. Wilson, a Mormon missionary from America. Catherine is receptive of Mr. Wilson's message, but before she can be baptized, she learns that her uncle is in dire financial straits. Catherine accepts an unwanted marriage proposal from the wealthy Mr. Davenport to save her family from poverty, despite the fact that he refuses to allow her baptism to take place. But when Mr. Wilson also proposes to Catherine, she is left with an impossible decision. Will she abandon her family, or the man and gospel she loves?
I would want to follow everyone to America if I could. I would have wanted to be near the prophet and hear his council and be near other members of the church. It would be very hard to leave behind my family and freinds, and I would have to say it would become a matter of prayer and fasting. But I can say with conviction if the Lord told me to go I would, but if he wanted me to stay behind in England to help the church be strong there, and be an influence on my family, I would do that too. So I guess my answer is I would go to Zion if the Lord told me to and make all haste in getting there. dancin_deb2000(at)yahoo(dot)com

I think it would be hard to leave England if that is what I grew up knowing.
