My dear sisters, I was grateful to speak with you today at the Worldwide Relief Society Devotional. You are often on my mind. I am deeply grateful for you and feel indebted to you. So much of the good The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints accomplishes and so much of the good that happens in the world takes place because of you.
Thank you for your devotion to the Lord as well as your efforts to ennoble others. I know how much the Lord loves you and depends upon you. I marvel at your faith and sensitivity to things of the Spirit. I'm inspired by your diligence, dynamic leadership, and your ability to see a need and meet it. Whether it be illiteracy, malnutrition, mental health concerns, or the day-to-day needs of others, you tackle real life issues with a rare combination of skill, compassion, insight, and love. The entire mission of the Lord's church is strengthened by you.
What a joyful experience it was to dedicate the Praia Cape Verde Temple. Doubt, uncertainty, and challenges may meet the many citizens of Cape Verde, but this temple will be a blessing to everyone in the country whether someone is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ or not.
Today is our stake conference. We walked in late because of a broadcast problem, so I didn’t catch the name of the speaker. She told the story of losing her daughter. She experienced immense grief, and anger at a God who would allow this.
