“I loved Elder Gerrit W. Gong’s talk in this session where
he taught no one should sit alone emotionally or spiritually. Our sacred duty
is to accept and welcome new and returning members. As the Lord hastens His
work, we should love, nurture, and serve those who accept His gospel. We can
help build a Zion people, where we are of one heart and one mind. To be one
with the Lord, we must be one before the Lord. All members, regardless of
baptism date, share a responsibility to welcome others. My counsel to the
members of the Church is to wrap our arms around these precious, elect people
who have accepted the gospel of Jesus Christ. We can assure these new converts they
belong and are not just guests. We can help them understand they are disciples
of Jesus Christ who can minister to others and accept callings to serve.” - Elder
