Even if you don’t have any ancestors who crossed the plains, each one of us has ancestors who were pioneers in their own way—paving the way for us to enjoy the blessings we have today!
Elder M. Russell Ballard, who died last year, loved speaking about the pioneers.
“Never forget that the success of today is built upon the shoulders and courage of the humble giants of the past,” he said.1
