General Authority Seventy

“Courage To Proclaim the Truth”


Elder Silva describes his conversion experience and encourages young men and young women to serve missions.

  • The opportunity for missionary service in our youth is unique.

  • Young Men: Do not delay missionary service.

  • Young Women: You are very welcome if you desire to serve full time

  • “The privilege of representing the Savior Jesus Christ and His Church cannot be ignored.”

  • Service missions are welcome and necessary as well, for service missions also provide indescribable experiences. People in different stages of life are also necessary in the work of the Lord.

  • “As you proceed firmly in Christ and with courage not only to proclaim the truth but to live the truth, you will find comfort and peace during the turbulence that you shall encounter in these days.”

  • Trust in Heavenly Father and do not give up
