Families: A Celestial Pattern

“Families are not just meant to make things run more smoothly here on earth and to be cast off when we get to heaven. Rather, they are the order of heaven. They are an echo of a celestial pattern and an emulation of God’s eternal family.”

President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Second Counselor in the First Presidency, “In Praise of Those Who Save,” Ensign, May 2016, 77.
