An American church visitor at a St. Petersburg seminary reports Western evangelists pressuring Russian students. Leaders urge humility and ecumenical aid to strengthen indigenous churches, warning against a “tidal wave” of Western proselytizing that could provoke a backlash and shut Russia’s doors to outsiders.

Mormon founder intended women for priesthood says historian
Salt Lake City historian D Michael Quinn argues Joseph Smith taught women could hold priesthood power through temple endowment ritual. He notes early church practice allowed women healing power via anointing and blessing, while modern leaders deny women priesthood. Quinn cites documentary evidence, warns modern statements misinterpret priesthood as office. The book, Women and Authority, notes 1840s Nauvoo Female Relief Society ties to priesthood aims.
