Blandford, Massachusetts, was initially referred to as Glasgow Lands due to the European colonists of Scots descent who arrived in 1735. These Scots founded a Presbyterian church; indeed, the reason for their remove from Hopkinton, Massachusetts, was that Hopkinton sought to adopt a Congregational form of worship. Yet in 1822, the White Church, designed by Isaac Damon, was constructed to house what had become the Congregationalist worshippers in Blandford. The White Church remained active long into the 20th century before its physical decline and eventual purchase by the Blandford Historical Society in 2006. While the congregants have another church nearby to call home, the White Church, listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 and affixed as part of the town seal, has long been cemented in the minds of residents of the area, regardless of religious affiliation.

This distinctive textbook walks the reader through the foundations of the Biblical worldview (namely a certain view of the one living God), the articulation of belief in that God in narratives, both in the Old Testament and New Testament, and then shows how various writers theologized out of those narratives into specific situations for specific audiences.

In D&C 121:45 we find a phrase that appears only one time in all of scripture "... the doctrine of the priesthood...". It says that "..."the doctrine of the priesthood shall distil upon thy soul as the dewsfrom heaven", among other amazing blessings. This is included as one of the powerful and positive consequences of exercising the priesthood as the Lord intends and living according to the divine principles that the Lord has taught us. The purpose of this book is to study the doctrine of the priesthood and hopefully, to better understand what it is, how and why it can and will distill upon our souls as the dews from heaven when we qualify for it

This work is the second in a series of studies illuminating important, yet overlooked and forgotten Latino Civil Rights activists. Each study is unique and a standalone presentation of an individual and the times in which that individual lived. Each study is neither a biography nor monograph, but an introduction to that activist and the situations in which the individual was required to function.The reader may well be advised to view each work as an introduction to the life and times of the individual. Additionally, no person is an isolated life. Each of us is part of an interlocking association of friends, acquaintances, and unfortunately enemies as well. Thus, many other players interact with each of our main characters to some extent, great or small, and for good or evil. Some of these other players will tend to appear in their various roles in more than one of the works in this series, and more than one may become the main character in one of these works.This work has such juxtaposition with the first book in our proposed series. The first book focuses on the life of Bert Corona, a blacklisted Hispanic civil rights activist. In that book, a work focused primarily upon Bert Corona, another character appears in a discussion of the Sleepy Lagoon Murder Case. This financial wizard was Josefina Fierro, the main character in this study. Thus, various characters, both protagonists and antagonists, appear in these various roles, large and small, much as a series of books might have interlocking characters fulfilling major or minor roles as the series develops. However, these characters have the added worth of being real human beings living their lives in a period that brought about our own world of the present.Thus, this series of studies has as a main goal, to address these individuals and their activities with the available source material. If there is no other value to them, may the value of "Let every voice be heard" constitute the motivation for their existence. However, I believe that the overwhelming percentage of readers will find the material fascinating and informative. Additionally, I believe that the history presented is sound and served to expand the knowledge base of the lives and times examined. As always, I wish each one of you a smashing good read and intellectual illumination.Michael J. Lynch III, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History and Geography University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff
