Saturday Morning Session
Preaching the Gospel of Peace
Excerpts
Since last conference, difficulties in the world have continued. The global pandemic still affects our lives. And now the world has been rocked by a conflict. …
Brothers and sisters, the gospel of Jesus Christ has never been needed more than it is today. … I love the Lord Jesus Christ and testify that His gospel is the only enduring solution for peace. …
… We have the sacred responsibility to share the power and peace of Jesus Christ with all who will listen and who will let God prevail in their lives.
Every person who has made covenants with God has promised to care about others and serve those in need. We can demonstrate faith in God and always be ready to respond to those who ask about “the hope that is in [us]” [1 Peter 3:15]. …
Today I reaffirm strongly that the Lord has asked every worthy, able young man to prepare for and serve a mission. …
For you young and able sisters, a mission is also a powerful, but optional, opportunity. …
… We also welcome senior couples to serve when their circumstances permit. …
All missionaries teach and testify of the Savior. The spiritual darkness in the world makes the light of Jesus Christ needed more than ever. Everyone deserves the chance to know about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.
