Presiding:
Elder Neil L. Andersen- Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Presiding at this conference will be Elder Neil L. Andersen an Apostle.
Neil Linden Andersen was born in Logan, Utah, and raised in Pocatello, Idaho. He graduated from Brigham Young University, where he was a Hinckley Scholar, and earned a masters of business administration from Harvard University. After completing his education, he settled in Tampa, Florida, where his business interests included advertising, real estate development, and health care.
Neil L. Andersen and his wife, Kathy Williams Andersen, are the parents of four children.
Prior to his call as a general authority, Elder Andersen served as a mission president in the France Bordeaux Mission and as president of the Tampa Florida Stake. He was named a member of the First Quorum of the Seventy in April 1993, at age 41, and that September was our stake's visiting authority. He was serving as the senior member of the Presidency of the Seventy prior to his sustaining on April 4, 2009, to the Quorum of the Twelve.
Elder Andersen previously led the work of the Church in southern Brazil and, again as a member of an area presidency, oversaw the Church in western Europe. He has also assisted in supervising the work of the Church in Mexico and Central America. In addition, he supervised Church audiovisual production, including the filming of “The Testaments: Of One Fold and One Shepherd” and managed construction of the broadcast facilities in the Conference Center as the executive director of the Church Audiovisual Department.
He speaks French, Portuguese, and Spanish in addition to his native English.
We look forward to receiving counsel from Elder Andersen on March 6th and invite all to join with us.
Preparation:
Review Elder Andersen's prior talks:
Come with Questions for the Spirit:
We invite you to let the Lord know you are ready, bring the questions of your heart, come prepared to receive revelation, commit to act upon the guidance you receive.
Come Early:
We ask all to be reverently in their seats by 9:45 am. To assist with reverence, a cry room will be available (see signage in the building), and we would ask that the perimeter "track" not be used for exercising children.
