Our New Prophet, President Thomas S. Monson

I absolutely love President Monson. His voice and his stories have always really touched my heart. It's hard to believe that he is 80 years old!

This is the tiniest picture ever, but the only one that I could find!

The new First Presidency was announced today. Henry B. Eyring and Dieter Uchtdorf were called to be counsellors to President Monson. It is so exciting! I feel really good about it and I joy in the plan that our Father in Heaven has in place. We are never left hanging without a direction or without guidance.

I love President Monson, too. He is a remarkable man. I marvel that he was called as an Apostle at 36. That just seems absolutely incredible to me!!! Like you, I love that we are never left without guidance.

I was so excited to see Elder Uchtdorf called as a counselor. They all did so well at the press conference too.

I'm so excited about it! I wish I could see the video. I haven't seen the press conference yet. On my screen, your video is black. Bummer.

I am excited and comforted about it as well. I was surprised and happy about Elder Uchtdorf.

I agree, President Monson is sooo wonderful. Since I was a child I remember him being my favorite speaker. I shook his hand once after I performed at the Marriot center. I remember he was very tall, has very large hands, and was so sweet to all of us.
