Pioneers in Moscow

In keeping with Pioneer Day in Utah (July 24th) I want to show you some of the many pioneers here in Moscow.  I think the best way to describe them is from the hymn, "They, the Builders of the Nation."

"They, the builders of the nation,
Blazing trails along the way;
Steppingstones for generations
Were their deeds of ev'ry day.
Building new and firm foundations,
Pushing on the wild frontier
Forging onward, ever onward,
Blessed, honored Pioneer!"

 

"Ev'ry day some burden lifted,
Ev'ry day some heart to cheer,
Ev'ry day some hope the brighter,
Blessed, honored Pioneer!"


"List our song of adoration,
Blessed, honored Pioneer!"
