The late prophet, Russell M. Nelson, consistently and emphatically declared that the most important work taking place on earth today, is the the gathering of Israel. To an audience of youth around the world, he taught that our focus should be to gather God's children on both sides of the veil, in preparation for the Second Coming of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Sister Wendy Nelson, also proclaimed that the gathering is happening now in all of the tribes scattered across the Earth. Since the day of that broadcast, June 3, 2018, the work of the gathering has moved forward at an accelerated pace through increased missionary service and through temple and family history work. It is a work of upmost importance in this last dispensation and we have been invited to participate in the effort and miracles that are inherent in the gathering of Israel.

In today's Gathering Academy Episode, Colette shows how to connect and navigate within the different platforms, making research a little easier, less time consuming and way less frustrating.

After the prophet, Joseph Smith was murdered, the church faced uncertainty as to it's future. The members were left shaken and confused on what the path looked like moving forward. Who was to take the prophetic mantle. During this time of great upheaval a few men stepped forward to profess their right to step into the prophetic line of succession. On August 8, 1844 the saints met to resolve this matter near the temple in Nauvoo. To aide the saints at the time in helping them know who the right man to sustain as the next prophet, the Lord opened the eyes and ears of many as the prophetic mantle fell on Brigham Young. Most congregants either saw, felt, or heard Brigham Young appear as Joseph Smith, confirming the Lord's will that Brigham Young was to be the successor of Joseph Smith, allowing the church to move forward in it's rightful place within the restoration of all things in the latter days. The Lord has proved time and time again through out history that He is guiding and directing all things through revelatory, thinning of the veil experiences to all who have eyes to see and ears to hear.
