All who live or ever have lived who come unto Christ and live His gospel will feel joy beyond any earthly expression as we reunite, resurrected, with our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ and with our parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, and ancestors.

I invite you to join me at https://t.co/DvO30jyBlh on June 7 as we discuss how to hear God's voice in an age of artificial intelligence. You are not a data point. You’re a beloved child of God with moral agency and divine potential.
“Societies are not held together primarily by law and its enforcement, but by those who voluntarily obey the unenforceable because of their sense of accountability to God.” - Dallin H. Oaks
Elder Neil L. Andersen of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles dedicated the Bacolod Philippines Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Sunday, May 31, 2026.
“These houses of the Lord bring a power to the people,” Elder @AndersenNeilL said. “It allows the people to covenant with the Lord and remember those covenants on a regular basis because they’re in the house of the Lord. And the Lord blesses them for keeping their covenants.”
The temple is the third to be dedicated this year in the Philippines. Two additional temples are under construction, and six are in planning stages.
“The effect of these many temples in the Philippines will be the same effect as it is across the world,” Elder Andersen said. “There will be more disciples of Christ, more devoted Latter-day Saints, more families that are sealed who stay together and continue through the generations.”

#RMP Rosa MariaPalacios demostrando q aún le queda mucho de la honestidad intelectual de sus primeros tiempos, como dice @JBCPERU . Rosa María Palacios es crítica con el fujimorismo, sin embargo aquí cuenta toda la verdad sobre el tema económico del Perú.
If you missed it today in Sunday School or want to watch it again, President D. Todd Christofferson and Elder Quentin L. Cook hosted a discussion on religious freedom celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States of America.
What was your biggest takeaway?
It was remarkable to have been in Otavalo, Ecuador and hear that the prophet of the Lord has authorized the building of a temple here.
To see the faith of the people here who came to a devotional on a Thursday evening, not knowing this would also be a temple announcement, is incredible.
I’ve been so impressed with the faith in Jesus Christ that members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Ecuador have and feel grateful for them and their example over the decades.
We look on life differently; we see way beyond this mortal life. Our trust is in our Heavenly Father and in His Son. Our challenge is to believe in Him and trust in Him, and to know that our choices in this life will follow us beyond the veil.
I shared this message while in New Zealand on a recent assignment.
What Jesus said to His disciples anciently still applies to us today: “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me” (Matthew 16:24).
During a church meetinghouse tour with city councilors many years ago, I was asked this very important question about the need for multiple priests in our congregations.
Being here in beautiful New Caledonia for the first time with Elder Peter F. Meurs, I am amazed how the people are partaking of the delicious fruit of the gospel of Jesus Christ just like Lehi described in the Book of Mormon.
In July, the Church will open 55 new missions to accommodate a growing number of missionaries already called. The addition will bring the total number of missions to 506 and allow missionaries to better support the growing number of congregations worldwide.
“What we are witnessing today is more than growth in numbers,” Elder Dale G. Renlund (@DaleGRenlund) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said in a May 2026 social post. “Across the world, missionaries are demonstrating a deep devotion to the Savior and a sincere consecration to His work. An increasing number express that their fundamental reason for serving is their love for Jesus Christ and their desire to join Him in His work — an inspiring reflection of the faith and commitment that characterize today’s missionary force.
“As the work goes forward, this is indeed a joyous and marvelous work and a wonder.”

A new temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been announced for Otavalo, Ecuador, bringing another house of the Lord to the Andes region.
Elder Juan Pablo Villar of the South America Northwest Area Presidency made the announcement on behalf of the First Presidency on Thursday, May 14, 2026, during an evening devotional in Otavalo with local Latter-day Saints.
“We are pleased to announce the construction of a temple in Otavalo, Ecuador,” the First Presidency statement says. “The specific location and timing of the construction will be announced later. This is a reason for all of us to rejoice and express gratitude for such a significant blessing — one that will allow more frequent access to the ordinances, covenants and power that can only be found in the house of the Lord.”
Elder Dale G. Renlund (@DaleGRenlund) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles presided at the devotional. He was joined by Elder S. Mark Palmer of the Presidency of the Seventy.

☪️ La destrucción de antigüedades, arte y patrimonio cultural en todo el Medio Oriente es devastadora…
Un esfuerzo deliberado para borrar miles de años de historia que existieron antes del islam
Sin historia, no hay civilización, no hay memoria y no hay futuro…
Que en paz descanse el presidente Alberto Fujimori.
El odio de sus detractores jamás significará más que el coraje que tuvo para tomar decisiones sumamente difíciles que mejoraron las vidas de millones de peruanos y que transformaron al Perú sin vuelta atrás.
A ese coraje y a su decisión política les debo también la vida de mi padre. Eternamente agradecida.
Mi más sentido pésame a su familia y a todos los que hoy lamentan su partida.
El salvajismo con el que los islamistas tratan a los cristianos en Nigeria.
Es desgarrador verlo.
Ese país se ha convertido en un infierno para los creyentes: los torturan, los humillan y los asesinan entre risas, mientras el mundo mira para otro lado.
¿Dónde está @sanchezcastejon ? ¿Dónde su mocito de cuadras, @jmalbares ?
¿Dónde la ONU? ¿Dónde las flotillas, las manifestaciones y las pancartas de la izquierda occidental?
¿Dónde se metieron los grandes defensores de los derechos humanos, la legalidad internacional y todas esas ONG tan generosamente subvencionadas?
¿Dónde?
Silencio absoluto.
En 1950, el gobierno iraquí aprobó una ley despojando a los judíos de su ciudadanía 🕍
Más de 120,000 judíos dejaron atrás hogares, negocios y una comunidad que había existido en Mesopotamia durante más de 2.600 años, desde el exilio babilónico de 586 a. C.
La Operación Ezra y Nehemías fue el transporte aéreo secreto que los trajo a Israel.
A las familias se les permitió una maleta. Irak congeló las cuentas bancarias. Las propiedades fue confiscada. Abordaron aviones con casi nada, muchos de ellos viendo un avión por primera vez en sus vidas.
No eran refugiados del Holocausto. Eran refugiados de un borrador diferente, uno del que el mundo rara vez habla. Las comunidades judías de Irak, Egipto, Siria, Yemen y Libia fueron desmanteladas casi por completo en una sola generación. 850,000 judíos fueron desplazados de tierras ��rabes. Su historia merece ser contada. 💛
