Dear School of
Abraham,
Just wanted to
share a
web
site we found while working on the School of
Abraham Genesis Project, Special Witnesses of Christ.
The second testimony is from Elder Maxwell and he was
speaking from the Lick Observatory outside San Jose. We
wanted to know a little about that observatory so we
went looking. It was named after James Lick, who
donated the money for the largest and finest
observatory as a monument to himself. He was also
instrumental in bringing
Ghiradelli chocolate
to San Francisco. (Thank you, Mr. Lick!!!) He was
quite an interesting man.
There are lots of
other interesting links on this site as well.
Pressing Onward,
Natalie
