    Our Mothers Knew It with Maria Eckersley A Creative Study of Come, Follow Me D&C [D&C 94-97] “For the Salvation of Zion” September 1 – September 7, 2025 WEEK 36 SUMMARY ================= In June–August 1833, the Saints in Kirtland and Missouri received revelations addressing both sacred building and spiritual preparation. Section 94 directed the construction of two key structures in Kirtland—a printing house and a church building—emphasizing order, planning, and consecrated labor as essential to Zion’s growth. Section 95, a rebuke and encouragement, reminded the Saints that their delay in building the Kirtland Temple was disobedience; yet God, in mercy, promised His presence, endowment of power, and angelic visitations if they acted faithfully. Section 96 provided direction regarding the French farm in Kirtland, appointing stewardship over the land for the welfare of the Church, reflecting the law of consecration in practice. Finally, Section 97, sent to Missouri during increasing persecution, counseled the Saints on building the Lord’s house in Zion (Independence), teaching that Zion is defined by the pure in heart, that chastisement is an expression of God’s love, and that righteousness and temple-centered worship bring both divine protection and peace. Together, these revelations show how early temple building, consecration, and spiritual purity were central to the unfolding vision of Zion in both Kirtland and Missouri.
