Prayer by W. W. Phelps |
|
|
| High
priests to meet alone |
|
Resolved that the Highpriests
meet alone except when the Elders, Priests Teachers or members shall have
business at conference & this according to Revelation. |
|
I
have not located a revelation to this effect, or any other reference to it. |
| High
priests or elders to supervise branches |
|
Resolve: John Corrill
and Isaac Morley to set the branches in order, see that high priests or
elders are set apart to see that meetings are held, and that officers and
members do their duties as outlined in revelations. |
|
|
| Prospective
missionaries |
|
Resolve: Committee to
verify qualifications of high priests, elders, and priests as reported by
Corrill and Morley "or stationed high Priests or Elders over the various
branches of the Church of Christ in Zion, as to the propriety of their going
forth a broad into the world to preach the gospel of peace." |
