THE VALLEY OF ADAM-ONDI-AHMAN

Here Adam and his righteous posterity met (see D&C 107:53-57). Adam, other prophets, and faithful Saints from all ages will meet the Savior here prior to His Second Coming.

Looking eastward across the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman, a quiet, beautiful valley located in northwestern Missouri near the community of Gallatin.

Significant Events:
Three years before he died, Adam called his righteous posterity into this valley and bestowed on them his last blessing (D&C 107:53-56). In 1838 Adam-ondi-Ahman was the location of a settlement of between 500 and 1,000 Latter-day Saints. The Saints abandoned this settlement when they were expelled from Missouri. Before Christ’s Second Coming in glory, Adam and his righteous posterity, which includes Saints of all dispensations, will again assemble in this valley to meet with the Savior (Dan. 7:9-10, 13-14; D&C 27; 107:53-57; 116:1).
