The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Dallin H. Oaks is the new president and prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints with Henry B. Eyring and D. Todd Christofferson as his counselors in the First Presidency.

Russell M. Nelson was laid to rest in a private graveside service following a remembrance and celebration of his life at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' conference center in Salt Lake City.

El presidente del Cuórum de los Doce Apóstoles, Dallin H. Oaks, se espera que se convierta en el próximo líder de la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días tras la muerte del presidente Russell M. Nelson.

A woman who was inside a Michigan church when her father and three other people were killed has written a public plea for peace. Lisa Louis also says she instantly forgave the gunman after they locked eyes in the chaos.

Nelson fue la persona de mayor edad que ha liderado la Iglesia de Jesucristo de los Santos de los Últimos Días. Se le recuerda como un hombre de ciencia cuya presidencia estuvo marcada por el crecimiento y el cambio dentro de la iglesia.

The president of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, Dallin H. Oaks, is expected to become the next leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints after the death of President Russell M. Nelson.

Authorities had feared they would find more victims in the charred wreckage but now believe everyone is accounted for after Sunday’s attack. Investigators are focusing on what motivated the former Marine to ram his pickup truck into the church in Grand Blanc Township.

Police say a 40-year-old man rammed a pickup truck into the front door of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc Township, about 50 miles north of Detroit, before starting the shooting. He is also believed to have deliberately set fire to the church building.

Nelson was the oldest person to have led the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He is remembered as a man of science whose presidency was marked by church growth and change.

The affinity between them is mostly political, says Mormon studies professor Matthew Bowman. Is Charlie Kirk’s death in Utah a watershed moment for the religious traditions or something more temporary?

The Utah Republican Party streamed Kirk’s Arizona memorial service at the Utah Valley Convention Center in Provo.

“This is everywhere. Every community, every town, every state,” one of the suspect’s neighbors said. “It's going to be everybody's neighbor, everybody's classmate. It's not at all unusual anymore.”
