Discourse 1868-05-24
Bro Wilford Woodruff, said he was pleased to meet with the school—to contemplate the result— sunday schools are of great importance to qualify children to fill places which they will be called to fill by and buy. Pres't Young and others will eventually pass away, and the responsibility will rest on you—many of you will live until Christ comes—and we should prepare and qualify ourselves to perform the duties required at our hands.
