I just want to ask
you one question. Can you feel our love for you?
Good, because we're here
because we love you. We love the youth of
the Church, and we know that the
future of the Church is in the hands of
your generation.
So we not only love
you, but we trust you.
And we know that you
will be a great blessing for your families,
for your marriages, for your children yet unborn. You'll be the hope of the world. And so when you
look in the mirror, look beyond what you see
to what you will become. You'll become the leaders
not only in the Church but in society, because you'll
be righteous and worthy, worthy of all emulation. So I think in
conclusion, speaking for Wendy and my Brethren
of the Twelve and the First Presidency, we'd like to leave
a blessing with you, that you'll find joy in life,
and to continue to pursue your education
and to continue to be faithful disciples
of the Lord Jesus Christ, and find the joy that His
gospel will bring to you. Should there be illness among
you or in your families, we invoke a blessing
of health and healing, consistent with the will of
the Lord for those individuals. We express our love
for each of you. Elisha, Nauvoo, Landon, Lily,
Exavier, Dylan, Haley, Jackson, and Ilena, and bear our
testimony that God lives. Jesus is the Christ. This is His Church,
and we're His people. In the name of
Jesus Christ, amen.
