Elder Bednar Dedicates the Refurbished Hill Cumorah Historic Site
Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles dedicated the refurbished Hill Cumorah historic site in Palmyra, New York, on Sunday, September 21, 2025. The Prophet Joseph Smith was visited here in the 1820s by an angel named Moroni and given the gold plates that contained the record now known as the Book of Mormon. In his dedicatory prayer, given to around 500 guests and a global broadcast audience, Elder Bednar of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said, “I dedicate this site as a place of holy remembrance, a place of heavenly inspiration, a place of heartfelt appreciation, a place of seeking and learning, and a place of humble reverence.” Watch the video on Newsroom.ChurchofJesuChrist.org.
