QUOTE OF THE DAY Howard W. Hunter |

“My brothers and sisters, I testify that the impressions of the Spirit have weighed heavily upon me in considering these matters. Our Eternal Heavenly Father lives. Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, guides his church today through his prophets. . . I pledge my life, my strength, and the full measure of my soul to serving him.
