Abstract
The Lord sent an angel to call the Prophet Joseph Smith to receive the plates upon which was recorded the religious history of an ancient American civilization. The challenges of preparing to receive the plates and then protecting them is recounted with video from the Hill Cumorah, where the plates were secreted for thirteen centuries, as well as the Smiths’ homes and farm in Palmyra and Manchester, New York. In a grove of trees near the home Joseph Smith showed the Book of Mormon plates to eight other individuals, who became witnesses of the existence of the plates.
