QUOTE OF THE DAY John Taylor |

“All we have to do is to live our religion, to obey the counsel of our President, be humble and faithful and not exalted in our own strength, but ask wisdom of God and see that we have peace with God, with our families, with one another, that peace may reign in our bosoms and in our community” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: John Taylor, p. 150-151).
