what do Apostles do

Apostles are servants of the Lord. They travel to visit members of the Church around the world.

The first time I traveled as an Apostle, I met a man who had a hard time living the Word of Wisdom. I told him, “The Lord sent me here to give you a very simple message: ‘You can do this. I promise you will have His help as you face this challenge.’”

Would the Lord send one of the Twelve Apostles halfway around the world to help just one person? The answer is yes. He does it all the time.

What is an Apostle?

When Jesus was on the earth, He called 12 men to be His special helpers. They were called Apostles. He has called Apostles to be His special helpers today. They testify of Jesus Christ to the whole world. Elder Bednar is an Apostle.
