The Shepherds of Israel
President Gordon B. Hinckley
President of the Church
President Hinckley honors bishops as shepherds of Israel, outlines their duties, and asks members to pray for and support them.
“You must stand on higher ground so that you can lift others.”
“Each stands as a father to his people.”
“We have more than 18,000 bishops in the Church.”
“You must be there when every other source has failed.”
“We must pray for them.”
