Henry Ballard
"From the life histories of the founders and early members of the Church, we receive a legacy of faith that all Church members should appreciate and remember. Faith, sacrifice, and service were constantly required and fulfilled in the lives of our pioneer forefathers. I know of no early pioneer life history that exemplifies any faith, sacrifice, and service greater than the life history of Henry Ballard. Few men gave more for the Church than he did. From his humble birth and challenging early youth in Thatcham, England, Henry learned from loving parents the basic principle of hard work. He was encouraged by his parents to seek an education any way that he could . . . Joining the Church at the age of 17, he heroically moved from England to Salt Lake City . . . [Upon] arriving in the Salt Lake Valley with next to nothing, Henry accepted many different assignments and fulfilled them well. He soon was numbered among the very faithful whom the leaders of the Church could trust and rely on." This cherished account of Henry Ballard's life will help us to discover the faith and courage of the Ballard family. It is with great hope that such faith, sacrifice, and service can be exemplified in our lives today.
