First Vision XVIII

A red circle at bottom left; two white circles at top right; smaller circles in a grid in the spaces between.

July 9, 2026. A reference to Joseph Smith’s 1835 First Vision account. “I kneeled again. My mouth was opened and my tongue liberated, and I called on the Lord in mighty prayer. A pillar of fire appeared above my head. It presently rested down upon me and filled me with joy unspeakable. A personage appeared in the midst of this pillar of flame, which was spread all around and yet nothing consumed. Another personage soon appeared, like unto the first. He said unto me, ‘Thy sins are forgiven thee.’ He testified unto me that Jesus Christ is the son of God. And I saw many angels in this vision. I was about fourteen years old when I received this first communication.” Made with Figma, Inkscape, and Affinity Photo.
