The Bishop and His Counselors
President Boyd K. Packer
Acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Bishops, called by prophecy and guided by revelation, serve as fathers of their wards, supported by counselors and members.
“The Church is no bigger than a ward.”
“No doubt someone is in trouble and came to get the bishop.”
“inclined, ready, prepared”
“Revelation is the one credential that all bishops have in common.”
“Each bishop has counselors.”
