A Latter-Day Pilgrimage to Palmyra

On July 18-20, 2008, we voyaged to Palmyra, N.Y., for the Hill Cumorah Pageant in Palmyra, N.Y., where the grand narrative of Mormonism is dramatically represented each year on stage. This is a true record of our trip.

These things have been revealed to me


Over a year ago, we began planning a trip to the Hill Cumorah Pageant in Palmyra, N.Y. The annual reenactment of many of the founding stories of Mormonism, the pageant draws thousands of faithful and a handful of gentiles to an enormous outdoor stage tucked into the hillside in upstate New York. We weren’t the first curious (and slightly scornful) outsiders to visit this magnificent, grandiose celebration.
