Discourse 1876-04-19
The following Remarks were made by
Wilford Woodruff:
I feel to endorse the remarks, and counsel given by
Pres. Young, and the brethren, on this occasion. I do not
believe sthat it is designed by our Father in Heaven that
any thing that has been given or organised for the buil-
ding up of this Church, is ever to decrease, but to increase.
While Pres Young was speaking of the little
time we have to spend here, and of the great purposes
of God to be accomplished, the thought struck me,
how few there are, upon the face of the ^whole^ earth that
have this work to do. When we compare the Saints of
God with the world; our numbers are very few. Out of
twelve hundred millions of people who live upon the
face of the earth we have perhaps, a hundred thousand
of this people to-day, perhaps a few more taking women
and children. A great work in this last dispensation
