Wilford Woodruff attends a meeting at the Gadfield Elm Chapel of the United Brethren, where they unanimously pass a resolution that henceforth they will be known as the Brand Green and Gadfield Elm Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Woodruff remains in this area until August, by which time he will have converted approximately 800 members.

    this was when WW was a true and faithful Q12 apostle before he fell and lost his authority in 1846 when he took his 1st polygamous wife.

    That same power to convert whole churches unto the truth will some day be among The Church of Jesus Christ (WHQ: Monongahela, Pennsylvania), the true succession of the restored gospel. It will only occur when the Choice Seer, the future full-blooded American Indian Moses comes forth first out of the land of the 48 states.
