In the few weeks since last general conference, I have received several letters from individuals impacted by the message that no one should sit alone. I hope the messages that have been shared with me will help you.

This morning, I described how blessed it is to be a peacemaker and how peacemaking begins in the most basic place: in our hearts, then in homes and families.
As we practice there, peacemaking will spread into our neighborhoods and communities.
Peacemakers are sometimes labeled naive or weak from all sides. Yet, to be a peacemaker is not to be weak, but to be strong in a way the world may not understand.
“New beginnings are at the heart of the Father’s plan. Fresh starts are the mission of the Son. New dawns, new chapters, and new chances are the simple core of the gospel’s good news.” — Elder @PatrickKearon | #GeneralConference
Fun fact about new BYU commit Ryder Lyons:
His mother, Kamee, starred alongside Jimmy Stewart in the 1980 LDS cinematic classic “Mr. Krueger’s Christmas.”
🌷 Happy Easter! Today we rejoice in the knowledge that Jesus Christ lives and loves us. Because of Him, we can find a fresh start through repentance and forgiveness. We can live again someday with God and our loved ones. We can find hope in this world and peace in the life to come.
As a newly called Apostle, I felt the importance of sharing my witness of Jesus Christ’s literal Resurrection. Now, 41 years later, the urgency I feel is even greater.
On this Easter Sunday, I express my gratitude, reverence, and awe for the Savior’s Resurrection. This was the crowning culmination of His Atonement and the source of the greatest joy any of us will ever know.
It is my prayer that today, we can all feel the greater love that comes from knowing that Jesus Christ lives and has made eternal life possible for all who will follow Him. #GreaterLove
“Brothers and sisters, we must stop looking for reasons to divide and instead seek opportunities to ‘be one.’ He has blessed us w/ unique gifts and attributes that invite learning from one another & personal growth. … [Our differences bring] us together. #GeneralConference
The restoration isn't over. It's still occurring as Christ's gospel and His church are being shared, taught, and accepted all over the world.
