Speaking just days after being named as second counselor in the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President D. Todd Christofferson bore witness of the name of Jesus Christ and of His Resurrection to thousands of people over two days of meetings in Las Vegas, Nevada.
“I want you to know that I know that He lives,” President Christofferson said in a special stake conference of the Las Vegas Nevada Blue Diamond Stake on Sunday, Oct. 19.
“I bless you that it will be your testimony and that you will feel the love and know of His concern and care for you—that you are the sheep of His fold and you can have total confidence and trust in the resurrected Lord, His Church, His word, and His Second Coming.”
Besides this stake conference, he held leadership training, a missionary meeting, and a youth devotional on October 18-19.
In each meeting, he began by giving greetings from Church President Dallin H. Oaks. The Las Vegas assignment was on his schedule for several months, President Christofferson said, and last week when he talked to President Oaks about whether he could still go, President Oaks told him, “Yes, and give them my love.”
