Y. - David O. McKay, right inset, president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints, will officiate at dedicatory services Sunday, Jan. 15, for the'new chapel of the church at Palmyra, in western New York. It was in this area that the church's first prophet and president, Joseph Smith, shown in left inset, lived at the time he was visited by heavenly messenger resulting in the organ-ization of the church on April 6, 1830, in nearby Seneca County. The Sacred Grove, Hill Cumorah, scene of the great annual Mormon pageant, "America's Witness for Christ," and several other spots r ignificant in early Mormon history, are located in or near Palmyra. Since 1847, Salt Ike City has been headquarters of the church, now numbering 1,700,000 members throughout the world. President McKay Dedicates New Palmyra Chapel David O. McKay, 88-year-- president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-da- y Saints, will dedicate a new chapel of his faith in Palmyra, New York Sunday. This is an event of particular significance to the 1,700,000 Mormons in the world since it was near there that the church was founded 130 years ago. Joseph Smith, first prophet-preside- nt of the sect, a native of Vermont, was living at Palmyra at the time he received heavenly visitations, according to Mormon (belief, which resulted in the "restoration of the gospel in the latter days." The church was formally organized with six members at Fayette, near the present city of Waterloo in the nearby Seneca County, April 6, 1830. It was from the Hill Cumorah near Palmyra that Joseph Smith unearthed the golden plates that contained the records and his-tory of the early inhabitants of the western hemisphere which constitute the Book of Mormon. The book was first published in Palmyra in 1830. A religious historical pageant, "Americas Witness for Christ," is presenetd on the Hill Cumorah each summer by the church. The new chapel, completed in November, is of colonial design and contains, in addition to the central meeting hall, classrooms, kitchens, offices and recreational facilities. It was designed by William F. Thomas of the build-ing department in cooperation with the artchitectural firm of Ellsworth H. Tidd, Georgetown, Mass. Total cost was about $200,-00- 0. It is one of approximately 400 building projects the church has in progress in various parts of the world. Samuel J. Ferrguson is head of the Palmyra congregation of the church which numbers 173 members. It is a branch of the church's Eastern States Mission with headquarters in New York City, and of which Gerald Smith is president. emergency planning session.
