Brigham Young's role in the History of Mormonism

The 2nd Prophet in the history of Mormonism was Brigham Young. Brigham Young was born on June 1st of 1801. Brigham's dad was John Young and his mom was Abigail Howe. He was Born in Whitingham Vermont. Brigham Young was poor enough to have his mother die when he was only 14 years old. So then He started to become a carpenter. Eventually in the year 1832, causing him to be 30 years old, Brigham Young got baptized. A few years later on the 14th of February, 1835 he was called to be an Apostle in the History of Mormonism. While an Apostle he got to go to Great Britain to serve a mission for two years. More years later the event of Joseph and Hyrum Smith's Martyrs caused Brigham Young to take charge of the church. He resided at the Nauvoo, Illinois temple dedication in 1846. Later after trekking for a while in Kanesville, Iowa Brigham Young was ordained Prophet. This resided in the year of 1847. The trek continued to Salt Lake Utah where there he confirmed "this is the place". Once the initial Pioneers got here he formed the Perpetual Emigration Fund which assisted others to get to Utah. This Funding was formed in October of the year 1849. There's a program around that he formed. this is young men's and young women's. They vary for each ward. It can happen Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. It changes each year around some specific time. Young men's is scouts and I don't know what young women's has. It's put for 12 years old through high school. The young women's was made first in 1869 and then young men's in 1876. Brigham Young was able to dedicate the St. George Temple in Utah in 1877. I mean the year since he dedicated it on April 6 and he died August 29, 1877. 

He had a great quote that I have to totally agree with it is, " 'Mormonism' has made me all I am; and the grace, the power, and the wisdom of God will make me all that I ever will be, either in time or in eternity.
