James Caffall — Divine Protection During Missionary Travels in Kansas

During his missionary travels as an RLDS Apostle in the 1870s, James Caffall recorded an instance of divine protection while traveling through the American West. He and his companions felt a strong spiritual impression to alter their planned route through Kansas. They later discovered that by following this prompting, they had narrowly avoided a violent confrontation with a mob that had gathered to intercept them. Caffall attributed this escape to the direct intervention and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
