Some things to consider: 1. This site is interactive and not limited to one standard template so you can send pictures, stories and articles for us to post here. To do so please contact Br. Borde via the contact information located at the very bottom of each page on this site. 2. Use of this site is intended for those friendly towards West Indies Mission and former Trinidad & Tobago Mission. Do not spam E-mail addresses or use this site to hurt, injur or degrade any of its members. 3. If you are a RM, member, or friend of someone that served in any of the above missions then please send your info. You do this by using the join link when you continue. 4. Although all islands and the Guyanas are featured you will find that there is a heavy emphasis on Trinidad & Tobago. This is mainly because the former Trinidad Mormons web site was merged with this one. The link menu at the top therefore features links for T&T specific information as well as the rest of the Mission.

News: As Moses Depended upon Aaron

As Moses Depended upon Aaron Mormon History Related "The two brothers [Joseph and Hyrum Smith] sustained and supported each other through the cruelty to which they were subjected in jail at Richmond and the inhumane treatment in the dungeons of Liberty Jail. While marching with Zion's Camp, both were stricken with cholera and were literally at death's door. As they prayed with each other to be healed, Hyrum sprang to his feet, exclaiming, 'I have had an open vision, in which I saw mother kneeling under an apple tree; and she is even now asking God, in tears, to spare our lives, that she may again behold us in the flesh. The Spirit testifies, that her prayers, united with ours, will be answered' (Leonard J. Arrington and Susan Arrington Madsen, Mothers of the Prophets [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1987], p. 20)."As a result of such experiences, Joseph came to depend upon Hyrum just as Moses depended upon Aaron. Of Hyrum, Joseph said: 'I could pray in my heart that all my brethren were like unto my beloved brother Hyrum, for truly he possesses the mildness of a Lamb, and the integrity of a Job; and in short the meek and quiet spirit, of Jesus Christ; and I love him with that love, that is stronger than death, for I never had occasion to rebuke him, nor he me' (The Papers of Joseph Smith, ed. Dean C. Jessee, 2 vols. [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1989-92], 1:168)."Brigham Young said that 'Hyrum was as good a man as ever lived. . . . His integrity was of the highest order. . . . I used to think, and think now, that an angel dwelling in the presence of the Father and the Son possessed no more integrity in their hearts than did Hyrum Smith' (address given by Brigham Young, Salt Lake City Bowery, 8 Oct. 1866, LDS Church Archives, Salt Lake City). John Taylor said that Hyrum was 'a great and good man, and my soul was cemented to his. If ever there was an exemplary, honest, and virtuous man, an embodiment of all that is noble in the human form, Hyrum Smith was its representative' (History of the Church, 7:107)."The Lord Himself, however, gave the greatest tribute to Hyrum when He said, 'Blessed is my servant Hyrum Smith; for I, the Lord, love him because of the integrity of his heart, and because he loveth that which is right before me, saith the Lord' (D&C 124:15)."
