Two members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are now serving as chaplains in the British Armed Forces — the first since the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defence opened the role to Church members less than two years ago.

Following the earthquakes that struck various locations in Venezuela, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints launched a humanitarian response that includes the distribution of approximately 5,000 assistance kits, which are expected to benefit more than 23,500 people in the affected communities.
The response, coordinated by the Church in conjunction with humanitarian organizations and government authorities, aims to assess the most urgent needs and ensure that aid reaches those who need it most quickly.
The kits include food, drinking water, hygiene items, and other essential supplies. As part of this first phase of assistance, mattresses, blankets and pillows are also being distributed to families temporarily in shelters. This assistance is for anyone in need.
At the same time, the Church is preparing other projects to support families who have lost their belongings. The Church is committed to helping communities throughout their recovery.

We were visited by Malcolm Adcock, Director of Communications and International Relations for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as well as Mary Seaman and John Seaman, diplomatic liaisons for this important organization, which is active in all our countries through numerous projects.
Truly, Jesus Christ is the way to peace in this world, and eternal life in the world to come. He knows and loves each of us perfectly, and invites us to walk with Him, abide in Him, and follow His example of ministering to others one by one in charity and love.
We have been reminded of the central role of marriage and families in our Heavenly Father’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children. May we demonstrate the pure love of Christ in our families, in our communities, and in all of our interactions with God’s children.

“As we work together, we are able to reach many more people in need than we ever could reach on our own,” said Bishop W. Christopher Waddell, Presiding Bishop of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who set the tone for a roundtable discussion in London focused on one clear priority: collaboration.
Senior representatives from leading humanitarian organizations joined Bishop Waddell in Central London on Monday, March 23, 2026, for a discussion. Participants included Sophie Britt of Save the Children International, Euan Crawshaw of ShelterBox and Tala Hassoun of CARE USA.
This was the first of three gatherings in Europe. Visit the link below to learn more:

As Mary Magdalene and her companions mournfully approached the Garden Tomb, two angels appeared to them and shared the clarion call of all Christianity:
"Why seek ye the living among the dead?"
"He is not here, but is risen" (Luke 24:5-6).
This Easter season we also joyfully testify of this same eternal truth—Jesus Christ is risen. He lives!
The Savior of the world was crucified and, on the third day, rose from the dead, "the firstfruits of them that slept" (1 Corinthians 15:20). His Resurrection allows all to be resurrected, and through His grace, we can find peace "which passeth all understanding" (Philippians 4:7) and "be perfected in him" (Moroni 10:32).
We invite each of you during this Easter season to "seek this Jesus of whom the prophets and apostles have written" (Ether 12:41). As you do so, we testify that your Easter celebrations can strengthen your own faith and testimony that "death is conquered; man is free. Christ has won the victory" ("He Is Risen!" Hymns, no. 199).

The following statement was released by the United States Northeast Area Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints:
“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints stands with all people of faith who face violence because of their beliefs. Having experienced a similar attack in nearby Grand Blanc, Church members express their love, support, and deep concern for all who are affected by today’s act of violence at a synagogue in West Bloomfield. Houses of worship should be sanctuaries of peace, prayer, and community. We pray for healing, comfort, and peace for all who are suffering.”

Following the tragic shooting targeting the Jewish Community in Sydney, Australia, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has issued the following statement:
We are deeply saddened by the tragedy that took place in Sydney targeting people of faith as they gathered. We condemn, and feel acutely the pain of, such a senseless act and mourn with our brothers and sisters in the Jewish community around the world. May we all come together in peace and love to comfort those in need. As followers of Jesus Christ, we look to His example and pray that His love will soften hearts and inspire harmony and compassion during this holy season.

So sad to hear that #QuentinWillson has died. My heart goes out to his family at this difficult time. It was a pleasure to work with him on #BBC#TopGear - subjects ranging from drug driving to car theft. He was a great wit and an outstanding journalist, a really good bloke.
President Dallin Harris Oaks (@oaksdallinh) was announced today as the 18th President and Prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The announcement was made during a live broadcast from Salt Lake City, Utah. President Oaks was sustained and set apart today, October 14, 2025.
In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the prophet is chosen through a divinely inspired process. When the prophet passes away, the First Presidency is dissolved, and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, led by the longest-serving Apostle, assumes leadership, confirming the new Prophet through revelation and priesthood authority.
President Oaks, 93, succeeds President Russell M. Nelson, who passed away September 27, 2025.
The new leader of a global faith of more than 17 million members has called President Henry B. Eyring (@eyringHB), 92, and President D. Todd Christofferson (@ChristoffDTodd), 80 to serve with him as first and second counselors in the First Presidency, the Church’s highest governing body.
President Oaks also announced that President Jeffrey R. Holland (@hollandjeffreyr), 84, will be the President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. https://t.co/gVaTEXJHsM
President Russell M. Nelson will be known for the scores of new temples, accelerating the growth of the Church, centering the gospel in the home, his prophetic words and his love for Jesus Christ, but for Ann and me, one thing touched us most personally and profoundly: his kindness.
With sorrow we announce that Russell M. Nelson, beloved President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has died. He was 101 — the oldest president in the history of the Church.

Just days before President Russell M. Nelson’s 101st birthday, TIME magazine has published an op-ed authored by the prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
President Nelson shared what he described as his birthday wish for the world as he shared two truths that contribute to happiness and peace. His message reminded worldwide readers that 1) each of us has divine worth and dignity, and 2) we should love our neighbor and treat them with compassion and respect.
“My faith teaches me that over two millennia ago, Jesus Christ preached these same laws of happiness: to love God and to love our neighbor,” President Nelson wrote. “After 101 years, I can say that these are not abstract theological ideas — they are practical wisdom. They are what have sustained me through loss and triumph, uncertainty, peace, war, and healing. If we embrace these eternal truths — honoring our own worth, treating others with dignity, and nurturing our families — our lives, and our world, will be steadier and more joyful.”
