Lecture will focus on St. George pioneer

SALT LAKE CITY — The Church History Library's Men and Women of Faith lecture is titled "'I Loved the Work': Stories of Faith from the Life of Ann Cannon Woodbury" and will be at 7 p.m. on Aug. 9 in the Church Office Building main auditorium. The event is free and open to the public.

Kim Woodbury will share stories from the life of her third-great grandmother Ann Cannon Woodbury, whose family helped settle St. George and is a sister of Apostle George Q. Cannon.

Kim Woodbury is a third great granddaughter of Ann Cannon Woodbury. She works for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a public affairs area relations manager. Previously, she worked in marketing and communications for the Family History and Church History Departments.
