Notes:

Inscription on Monument:
On the Morning of September 1, 1901 four missionaries
of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints humbly
gathered to dedicate Japan "for the proclamation of the
truth and for the bringing to pass of the purposes of the
Lord." Elders Heber J. Grant, Louis A. Kelsch, Horace S.
Ensign and Alma O. Taylor walked to a secluded spot in
Yokahama, and far from this site, and knelt within a small
grove of trees Elder Grant, a Member of the Quorum of the
Twelve Apostles and President of the Japanese Mission,
offered the dedicatory prayer.
Of the prayer, Elder Taylor wrote "His tongue was loosed
and the Spirit resided mightily upon him so much so that we
felt the angels of God were near for our hearts burned
within us as the words fell from his lips"
This monument stands in commemoration of a century of
devotion by faithful members of the Church throughout Japan,
and as a beacon of hope that the Gospel of Jesus Christ will
continue to bless the people of this great land.
