Patricia T. Holland

Sister Holland once wrote that she used to compare her quiet personality to her husband’s bubbly one. But then she realized something important.

“She referenced it to guide us, comfort us, and reassure us,” Sister Holland’s daughter, Mary Alice, tells LDS Living.

President Jeffrey R. Holland recently shared a beautiful thought about honoring mothers.

Family, friends, and Latter-day Saints around the world remembered Sister Patricia Terry Holland for her faith, testimony, and dedication to her husband and children and to the Savior and His Church.

After spending hours with Sister Holland through her words, I wanted to thank her for the difference she made in my life. But why would someone like Sister Holland, who had such stature, wisdom, and grace, care about a simple thank you card from me?

Her wisdom and shining example, her model of pure faith and sheer goodness live on.

Patricia Terry Holland, wife of Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, passed away peacefully on July 20, 2023, after a brief hospitalization. She was 81.

“I am a living witness of what it means for members of the Church to pray for [leaders].”

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland and Sister Patricia T. Holland share stories of faith and unique leadership opportunities they’ve each had throughout their decades of Church service.

Twenty-two years ago I lost a baby that I had carried through the sixth month of pregnancy. This was a long-awaited baby for whom my husband, three young children, and I had prayed earnestly.

Sister Holland shared her personal testimony of the Book of Mormon at the 2018 Mission Leadership Seminar. “Recently during a near-fatal illness I wanted Jeff and his priesthood to be with me constantly,” she said. “Because he couldn’t always be at my side, I wanted the next best thing. I wanted my Book of Mormon in my hands, holding it, and when I slept I wanted it under my pillow. With doctors telling us that I wasn’t going to make it. . . , I knew if I did live, it would be because of the blessings of the true gospel that the Book of Mormon teaches.” During the same seminar, Elder Holland also shared the greatest revelation God has ever given as well as the most important figure in the Book of Mormon.

LDS Church News recently created a beautiful video capturing President Russell M. Nelson's world tour by the numbers. Check it out:

“With the increasing pressures we face almost every day, it is very hard not to feel overwhelmed. ... We panic that we're doing too much for our children and then get an Excedrin headache worrying that we’re not doing enough.”
