A Temple Dressed In White St. George
In 1861, Brigham Young called 309 families to setle the St. George area and begin a cotton industry in Utah's Dixie. Those who answered his call had no idea of the hardships that awaited them. Intense heat, drought, flash floods and disease tested their determination and faith. From the call of Jacob Hamblin to teach the Indians of the area, through the struggle to establish a cotton crop, build the tabernacle, opera house, court house and the great challenge of constructing the St. George Temple on swampland, you will be astonished and moved by the story of those who built "A Temple Dressed in White.”
