Sergeant Hugh Nibley was among the first to land on Utah Beach in Normandy, France, on June 6, 1944, exactly 75 years ago today. “My fate seems always to have been first in line. Our ship headed the convoy, and as if that were not enough, our party was to be the first ashore when contact was made with the division,” Nibley remembers of that day. In Meridian Magazine, Maurine Proctor recently compiled Sergeant Nibley's memories of D-Day in "Sergeant Hugh Nibley’s Surprising Memories of D-Day."

As the prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Nelson often ministers to tens of thousands of people at a time.

On Monday, May 27th, President Nelson surprised 18-year-old Ashytn Poulsen and her family with a visit to Ashytn's hospital room. Since her diagnoses of acute undifferentiated leukemia in 2013, Ashtyn had endured three bone marrow transplants, defying medical odds all along the way. At the time of President Nelson's visit, she was battling pneumonia and kidney failure at Primary Children's Hospital. One week after her tender meeting with the prophet, Ashtyn peacefully passed away at home.

Mary Magdalene is one of the best-known characters in the New Testament, yet we know surprisingly little about her. In all but one of the twelve times that she is mentioned in the four Gospels, she is either named alone or first in a list of women. The sole exception is in John’s account of the women who stood by the cross in which the mother of Jesus is listed first (John 19:25). Nevertheless, in the Gospel of John, Mary Magdalene is the premier witness of the Resurrection and the only one commissioned to tell others the stunning truth. The primacy of her name in these accounts, the frequency of her mention, and her role on the morning of the Resurrection suggest that she was a prominent and respected disciple in the first century. From the earliest interpretations of her, however, she has been assigned polar opposite roles: at one extreme, a repentant sinner who quietly served; at the other, the apostle to the apostles.
