[Dieter F. Uchtdorf @UchtdorfDF]

Today, the beautiful doors of the Salt Lake Temple were installed. This temple and the temples around the world are meaningful to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints because when we enter through these doors, we enter the house of the Lord. There is no place on earth in which we are closer to Him.

There is something profoundly symbolic about stepping into the Lord’s holy house. In doing so, we leave behind the noise and burdens of a troubled world and enter a place of peace, light, and divine love. Within the holy walls of the temple, we make promises that connect us to our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus Christ.

As we leave the temple, we walk through these doors strengthened and renewed. We feel a sense of purpose and gratitude. And we carry with us a deeper sense of God’s love for us.

The joyful sacredness and importance of the temple can be taught to and felt by the youngest of God’s children. Holiness to the Lord is not just a text on the outside of the temple, it is a condition of life promised by Heavenly Father that can be felt anywhere, at any time.

Before BYU's game against Cincinnati, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints donated 27,000 pounds of food to UC's on-campus food pantry.

It's the biggest donation in the history of the pantry, which supports students facing food insecurity.

Saints make no mistake Elder Johnson testifies of the struggle many Black American members have experienced. Overcome only by the pure love of Christ as exemplified by other members and through personal revelation. We are all brothers and sisters in the family of God. 💜

[Ulisses Soares @Ulisses__Soares]

Jesus Christ, the greatest of all, suffered for us until He bled from every pore, yet He never allowed anger to inflame His heart, nor did aggressive, offensive, or profane words escape His lips, even amid such affliction.

With perfect temperance and unmatched meekness, He did not think of Himself but of each of God’s children—past, present, and future. Even in the midst of His greatest agony, the Savior demonstrated perfect and divine temperance.

Among the qualities that adorn true disciples of Christ, temperance stands out as a reflection of the Savior Himself, a precious fruit of the Spirit available to all who open themselves to divine influence.

“And no one can assist in this work except he shall be humble and full of love, having faith, hope, and charity, being temperate in all things, whatsoever shall be entrusted to his care” (Doctrine and Covenants 12:8). #GeneralConference

“The Family: A Proclamation to the World” states, “The family is ordained of God.” I love the clarity of that statement.

The Family Proclamation is a call for us to live in mortality, ever mindful of the divinity within us, and the eternal future that lies before us.

The principles are not out of step—but perfectly in step with the ways of the Lord and His covenant path.

The teachings of the Proclamation were revealed by our Lord Jesus Christ to His Apostles then and now. This is His Church; He has established the truths by which we live.

Our Father in Heaven has provided this proclamation to help guide us home to Him, to help us learn and be filled with love, strength, purpose, and eternal understanding. #GeneralConference #HearHim

The testimony of Jesus Christ was never a temporary gift.

[Patrick Kearon @PatrickKearon]

All of us can have a new beginning through, and because of, Jesus Christ.

Even you.

New beginnings are at the heart of the Father’s plan for His children. This is the church of new beginnings! This is the church of fresh starts!

Our new beginning doesn’t just happen once. We tend to think that baptism is our one shot at a new beginning.

It isn’t.

We don’t have just one chance.

These new beginnings can happen every day!

Jesus gives us as many new beginnings as we need. #GeneralConference

The First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has released the following statement:

“We join the world in mourning the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis. Countless lives have been blessed by his courageous and compassionate leadership. We extend our heartfelt condolences to all who looked to him for inspiration and counsel. As the world pauses to remember his example of forgiveness and service, we feel deep gratitude for the goodness of a life well lived and rejoice in the hope of a glorious resurrection made possible through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ.”

In 2019, President Russell M. Nelson met with Pope Francis inside the Vatican in what was the first meeting of its kind. Of that meeting, President @NelsonRussellM said, “We had a most cordial, unforgettable experience with His Holiness. He was most gracious and warm and welcoming. What a sweet, wonderful man he is, and how fortunate the Catholic people are to have such a gracious, concerned, loving, and capable leader.”
