The President and Prophet of my church died at 97 on Sunday night surrounded by his children.

I loved President Hinckley. He was kind, generous, full of humor and had a wonderful way of expressing the Love of Christ without sounding condescending or timid. He had a knowledge of the Love and Life of our Jesus Christ and knew that He lived. He worked hard to help others and he was much respected by those who came in contact with him.

Now that Pres. Hinckley has died, we also turn our eyes to see who’ll become our next church President. THIS article gives a pretty good explanation of the process. In this case, the oldest member and currently President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles is Thomas S. Monson. A very kind and gentle man. If he is our next President and Prophet, which seems likely, I know the church is in very good hands.
