President Lorenzo Snow was born April 3, 1814 at Mantua, Ohio,
the eldest son of Oliver Snow and Rosetta L. Pettibone Snow. He was a brother of
the illustrious Eliza Roxey Snow, which would later make him a brother-in-law to
Joseph Smith and later still to Brigham Young. Unlike many of the early Church leaders,
Lorenzo did not receive a testimony of the Gospel immediately upon hearing it
preached. He did not, in fact, even receive an outpouring of the Holy Ghost
after being confirmed a member of the Church.
About two weeks after being baptized in 1835, he retired to a grove of
trees some distance from him home. He reported that as he knelt in prayer, he
heard a sound like the rustling of silk gowns, and the Spirit descended
immediately upon him. He arose from that prayer with an unshakable testimony
that would never falter through the course of a long eventful life. The
gentlereader is referred to The Greater
Things Web Site for an account of this amazing experience in Lorenzo's own
words.
During the winter between 1836 and 1837, Lorenzo Snow was ordained an
Elder. As soon as spring arrived and the snows cleared enough to travel, he
began his first Mission, traveling without purse or scrip to Ohio.
He was ordained to the office of Seventy on July 17, 1840 by Joseph Young. Lorenzo Snow enjoyed perhaps the shortest
tenure in priesthood office in the history of the Church, for on the very next
day, July 18, 1840, Don Carlos Smith, younger brother of the Prophet, ordained
him a High Priest.
Elder Snow took as his first wife Mary Adaline Goddard in 1845. She would
bear him three children. Later he practiced plural marriage taking eight
additional wives.
He and his family started west with the Pioneer Company in 1846, but
illness forced them to remain on the trail in Mt. Pisgah, (near Winter Quarters)
Nebraska. It was 1848 before they were able to travel on and join the Saints in
the Great Basin.
Lorenzo Snow was ordained an Apostle February 12, 1849 by Heber C.
Kimball. Lorenzo Snow served several Missions, including England and Europe. By
1850 he was in Genoa, Italy where he taught the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ to citizens of that area for the first time in almost two thousand years.
Lorenzo Snow proved an able and effective administrator. Given the task
of preparing a celebration in 1849 of the original pioneer's arrival in the
Great Basin, his production set the pattern of Pioneer Day Parades and pageants
that survive to this day. He was instrumental in establishing cooperatives which
proved an economic boon the the Saints as they struggled in poverty and
isolation. The Lord was preparing his servant for his great work as President of
the Church.
Lorenzo Snow succeeded to the Presidency of the Quorum of the Twelve
Apostles in 1889 with the death of President John
Taylor and subsequent organization of the First Presidency with Wilford Woodruff as President.
President Wilford Woodruff died on September 2, 1898. When previous
Presidents had died, it took a period of between two to three and a half years
to reorganize the new Presidency. The Lord revealed that this was not to be and
eleven days later, Lorenzo Snow became the fifth President of the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
He inherited a Church which was drowning in debt, and he pleaded mightily
with the Lord for the solution. Further, the Saints were suffering under a
devastating drought. While on a trip to Saint George to preside over a
conference, it was revealed to him that the solution to both problems lay in the
Saints paying an honest tithing on their income, Despite his age and infirmity,
he delivered a powerful and impassioned plea to the Saints. The Saint George
Saints covenanted to obey this commandment and began to do so. President Snow
visited other communities delivering the same message. The drought was broken.
The Saints were saved from temporal disaster and slowly the Church began to move
into financial solvency.
President Lorenzo Snow died on October 10, 1901 in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Saviors of the Living and the Dead
Note: This talk was delivered in 1857 in "The Tabernacle" in Salt
Lake City. Since the Tabernacle with which we are familiar was not yet built,
this surely refers to the Old Adobe Tabernacle. Inasmuch as Elder Snow
repeatedly addresses "Brethren," we assume it was a Priesthood Meeting, and one
not associated with General Conference. It is interesting that Elder Snow
preaches on our responsibility to the dead at a time when the Church did not own
an operating temple. |

The Spirit and Principles of the United
Order Ask yourself: Could you live in the spirit and principles
of the United Order? We've all heard about it, but what was it really? Here is
what an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ had to say on the subject. Elder
Lorenzo Snow delivered this discourse to the Stake Conference of the Weber Stake
on 19 October 1879 in the Weber Stake Tabernacle in Ogden, Utah Territory. The
address is found in the Journal of Discourses, Volume 20, pp.361-372. |

A Serious Ordeal; A Godlike Resolve
Note: Herein are two talks delivered by President Lorenzo Snow to the
The Sixty-ninth Semi-Annual Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints in the Tabernacle at Salt Lake City. President Wilford
Woodruff had died a month before, and these were President Snow's first
addresses as President of the Church. The first is rather short and consists
only of a few opening remarks. The second is somewhat longer and deals with the
burdens of being President. A worthwhile read. |

Prosperity due to Blessings
Note: This is the opening address of the 71st Annual General
Conference of the Church delivered 1 April 1901. It turned out also to be the
last time President Lorenzo Snow would speak to the Saints in a General
Conference. Although he lived until the tenth of October of that year, he was
too ill to attend the October Conference. The subjects included the blessings
received by the Saints and an exhortation to faithfulness. |
