Mielenkiintoinen kirjoitus siitä, kuinka risti symbolina MAP-kirkossa on ollut vuosien varrella erilaisessa asemassa kuin tänä päivänä.
In 1916 a church asked the Salt Lake City Council to allow them to build a huge cross, "the symbol of Christianity," on Ensign Peak. "We would like to construct it of cement, re-enforced with steel, of sufficient dimensions that it can be readily seen from every part of the city," the request read.
That request came from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The cross was to honor the Mormon pioneers.
