In April conference, President Russell M. Nelson provided a new blueprint for service and local priesthood organization in God's Kingdom.
Ministering
"We have made the decision to retire 'home teaching' and 'visiting teaching' as we have known them. Instead, we will implement a newer, holier approach to caring and ministering to others. We will refer to those efforts simply as ministering." President Nelson reminded us that we must "minister to the one, just as the Savior did."
Organizing the Priesthood
President Nelson announced that in each ward, high priests and elders will now be combined into one elders quorum. "These modifications have been under study for many months, and are inspired of the Lord."
We look forward to fulfilling these changes to better serve each other, our community and our God.
