October 2013 Saturday Afternoon LDS General Conference

Todd Christofferson

We don't diminish the value from men and women's careers. The most important is the job as mother. This made it sound as though a successful career is great as long a proper attention is given to motherhood as well.

Some want to make women and men completely equal. But the world has enough women who are tough, coarse, and rude. We need more kindness, purity, and refinement. Blurring our differences makes us lose our distinct complimentary gifts.

Women should preserve their innate virtue. Don't lose your moral force. Make language clean, clothes modest, and conduct pure. 


S. Nielsen

The prophet has called all of us to help with missionary work.

What should we do?

1. Pray to bring someone closer to the gospel each day.
2. Pray for the missionaries and their investigators every day.
3. Invite a friend to an activity.




Timothy Dyches

Jesus Christ heals mind, body, and spirit beginning with faith. Opposition strengthens our will and helps us make choices. Opposition is indispensable to mortality. 

Faith precedes miracles. The miracle of repentance must be preceded with faith.


Jeffrey R. Holland

About depression-everyone will be anxious on occasion. MDD is more than discouragement. 

Christ's love is always there for you. Whether or not you deserve it. Faithfully pursue the the activities that bring the spirit into your life. Believe in miracles. Hope is never lost. 



God expects us to get a blessing and see someone about emotional disorders and physical. Patiently enduring some things is part of our education. 

Charity never faileth. Through any challenge there is still much hope and gratitude in life. Whatever your struggle, trust in God, hold on in his love. May we live by faith, hold fast by hope and live with compassion.


M. Russell Ballard

There is an urgency for each one of us to be involved in sharing the gospel. The greatest and most important duty is to preach the gospel. Are we doing all we can?

Every member needs to work together to reach out in love and share the gospel. 



Pray for opportunities to share the gospel and the courage to do it. 

What exactly is missionary work? Ask the savior what it is you are to do. Fear will be replaced with faith and confidence when we pray and ask for opportunities. Then, watch for opportunities. 

Pray personally for missionary opportunities. Many people have been kept from the truth because they don't know where to find it. Talk to more people every day to preach more of the gospel. Be inspired by God and go and do.

All members are asked to pray and reach out to just one person before Christmas.
