Counselors in the Primary General Presidency look ahead to the historic Friend-to-Friend broadcast and discuss the willingness of children who are “Trying to Be like Jesus”

Description

The conditions of the pandemic are impacting people in significant ways across the world. While Latter-day Saint children have been away from Primary classes for almost a year, they are continuing to flourish in the gospel at home as they follow the Savior’s example of love and service. Leaders in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have invited children, parents and leaders to join a special virtual Face to Face event on Saturday, Feb. 20, 2021, appropriately being called a Friend to Friend broadcast. The event will include music, activities, and messages from President Russell M. Nelson, Elder Ulisses Soares of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and members of the Primary general presidency.

In this podcast host Sarah Jane Weaver is joined by Sister Lisa L. Harkness and Sister Cristina B. Franco, counselors in the Primary general presidency, to discuss the historic event and the challenges and opportunities children face as they are “Trying to Be like Jesus” in these complicated times.
