This beautiful mural by Everett C. Thorpe (1904-1983) graces the front of the Providence, Utah, 2nd Ward chapel. I stared at this painting during Sacrament meeting every Sunday of my childhood. Ev Thorpe was a Providence native and a professor of art at Utah State University.

Hello, I have enjoyed your lessons for a number of years now. Thank you for the time and energy spent to teach the gospel. Can you tell me when Section 137, 138 will be ready?
I'm glad my blog has been helpful!
I don't have anything prepared on Section 137 but I do have a great lesson for Section 138. I'll link it in now.
The mural is still hanging in the chapel. Do you know a way I could get a copy?

I think it was a limited edition, but I'll ask around and post here if I find anything out.
And yes, I went to this chapel recently and was surprised to find the painting still there! I have edited the post.
Are you from the 2nd ward? Email me. Thepianoisgrand@gmail.com
