Elder Gérald Caussé of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said disciples of Jesus Christ are called to “honor and care for God’s creations.”
He added that “we are to bless our families, strengthen our communities, and lift those around us with love.”
Speaking at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, as part of a stewardship symposium on Friday, Nov. 14, the newest Apostle testified that the Eternal Father created the earth for a sacred purpose. This was Elder Caussé’s first public appearance since he was called to serve in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles on Thursday, Nov. 6. He was joined at the symposium by his wife, Sister Valérie Caussé.
“The creation of this magnificent world was never an end in itself,” he said. “It is the means by which our Heavenly Father’s eternal designs can be fulfilled.”
