Bonnie H. Cordon’s father has been gone for more than a decade, but his words — “never give up an opportunity to testify of Christ” — “are alive” in her. She invited everyone to “look for Christ everywhere. I promise he is there.” GeneralConference
Other top male and female church authorities will also take to the podium, addressing thousands at the Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake City and millions more via the internet around the world.Saturday morning session Carl B. Cook of the Presidency of the Seventy speaks at General Conference on Saturday, April 1, 2023.
Despite the anxiety he felt over having to speak so many times, Cook pressed on and said he was grateful he didn’t give up or resist the apostle’s instructions. As Bonnie H. Cordon’s father revealed to her that he had Lou Gehrig’s disease — amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS — a progressive fatal muscle disease, he counseled her to take every opportunity to testify of Christ.
The faith’s worldwide Young Women leader urged her listeners to develop “holy habits,” serving and giving in ways that are “less of a checklist and more of a witness.” “The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the apostles and prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that he died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven; and all other things which pertain to our religion are only appendages to it,” Stevenson quoted Smith as saying in his remarks to open the Saturday morning session.
The apostle invited Latter-day Saints to make 3 Nephi in the Book of Mormon a vital part of their Easter tradition, just as Luke Chapter 2 in the Bible is with respect to celebrating Christmas.
