Russell Ballard, acting president of the Quorum of the Twelve, “but as this goes forward, it’ll become more and more evident in our literature, in our advertising, in anything (with which) the church is connected, that we are The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.” “Are we there yet?” he added. “No. Is there a lot more work to do? Yes. And we’re taking those steps. And I think as time rolls out, and people see the other steps that we’re working on, they’re going to going to be very, very pleased. Certainly the membership the church will be. “I think the whole world will start to see us as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And if we can get that done, regardless of how much longer it takes us to get that all the way around the world, it’ll be one of the most tremendous and important things that we will have accomplished in our ministries.” https://www.deseret.com/2019/8/16/20807538/the-church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter-day-saints-mormon-lds-russell-m-nelson-full-name Edited August 18, 2019 by mikbone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me: Mordorbund. But if you're talking about us as a group you can call us Latter-day Saints, or members of the Church of Latter-day Saints. I now feel vindicated by this article.
