Never Give Up on Those Who Stray

Never Give Up on Those Who Stray
Mormon Doctrine / Teachings

"With the help of priesthood leaders, parents must continue to go back and find their lost ones, assuring them there will always be a 'home' within the family and the Church, waiting for their return. We never know when a heart may be turned. We never know when a soul may be weary and worn out by the world. When that happens, it seems our children almost always turn first toward Mother."
-- Bradley D. Foste, "Mother Told Me," Ensign, May 2010, 99

Stray Those Up Give Never
