Lord Is Preparing People
Mormon History Related
"I recently received a sweet letter from a school boy in Ghana in which he expressed his great pride in 'being a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.' The fact that he has not yet been baptized did not deter him from considering himself a Latter-day Saint. However, he expressed to me his hope that soon he could become a true Latter-day Saint with baptism, confirmation, and at the appropriate time, the bestowal of the Aaronic Priesthood. He said his heart always thrilled when he sang hymns like 'Come, Come, Ye Saints,' 'Come, O Thou King of Kings,' and the other songs of Zion."What we are saying is that there seems to be a great movement afoot in many nations to prepare people for the further light and knowledge that only we can give them. The Lord by his Spirit is preparing people for the day when the gospel will be taught them in plainness. We must be ready."
Spencer W. Kimball, "The Uttermost Parts of the Earth," Ensign, July 1979, 6-7
