Comments about ‘Thomas S. Monson named as new LDS Church president’

Wonderful.

What surprising news! I would have never guessed.

Wow!! These men are the men who the Lord called. They have my prayers and support.

Adding Elder Uchtdorf to First Presidency shows the increasingly international membership of the church.

"Whom the Lord calls, the Lord qualifies." One of my favorite President Monson quotes.

Fantastic! I'm glad to hear that such dedicated men will work together. I am impressed by their spirit and their love.

That's wonderful. finally an INTERNATIONAL First presidency

Our full support

The Lord has spoken! We love you President Monson, and your two counselors!
We are proud to belong to our Savior's church, and to be led by such great and spiritual men in these latter days.

I was thinking Boyd K Packer would be one of the counselors. I guessed Pres. Eyring. Thank you, brethren, for your dedicated service.

I was hoping for L. Tom Perry. It's so much easier to pronounce than Uchtdorf. :)

I just want to say, that they will be fantastic leaders of the church. It is amazing to see the process of God's church in action.

How lucky we are to have President Monson! Although we will sorely miss President Hinckley, I KNOW the church is in good hands now!

What a wonderful force for good as they lead our world to safer ground.

May the Lord grant each of them the strength to carry out this awesome responsibility and may we all humbly accept the Lord's counsel to us as given through these great men.

I'm excited to see what the Lord has in store through President Monson.

God bless this three mans of faith. Elder Uchtdorf is a good leader.


We have a first presidency to accomplish President Hinckley vision... All will be good...

I find it exciting that there is the possibility of having a member of the first presidency who doesn't have farm stories about Payson.

Bon Courage, President Monson! Our family is elated to support you from here in Belgium.

Inspiration and revelation at work.... We are in wonderfully changing times and these men are definitely up to the task of leading the Saints. Thanks be to the Father for these amazing men, their testimonies, their leadership and their skills. The Lord has provided.
