Leaders for Righteousness

President Gordon B. Hinckley has said of you, “You are great young people. … We have the finest [and strongest] generation of young people ever in the history of this Church” (Teachings of Gordon B. Hinckley [1997], 714). “I believe you have been prepared and reserved to be on the earth at this time when the challenges and opportunities are the greatest. I believe that the Lord is counting on you to be a leader for righteousness and to stand as a witness ‘at all times and in all things, and in all places’ (Mosiah 18:9). Indeed, it can be said of you that you are the ‘bright shining hope’ of the future (Gordon B. Hinckley, “Standing Strong and Immovable,” Worldwide Leadership Training Meeting, Jan. 2004, 20).”
