Journal Entry 

General Conference continues today. As I've said earlier, I  record all sessions of conference for future review. I've noticed that the Church News gives a nice recap of each conference talk so there's that way of reviewing the messages. Ideally watching each message is the best way.and in a couple of days each talk will be available on line in the Gospel Library app. I usually listen to at least one a day. As usual, many of us are anticipating President Nelson's talk to see, along with his message, what, if any, new temples might be announced.

Come Follow Me 

3 Nephi, Chapter 16, Jesus will visit others of the lost sheep of Israel—In the latter days the gospel will go to the Gentiles and then to the house of Israel—The Lord’s people will see eye to eye when He brings again Zion. About A.D. 34.

1 And verily, verily, I say unto you that I have other sheep, which are not of this land, neither of the land of Jerusalem, neither in any parts of that land round about whither I have been to minister.

2 For they of whom I speak are they who have not as yet heard my voice; neither have I at any time manifested myself unto them.

3 But I have received a commandment of the Father that I shall go unto them, and that they shall hear my voice, and shall be numbered among my sheep, that there may be one fold and one shepherd; therefore I go to show myself unto them.

"The Book of Mormon adds to our knowledge of how our Savior’s earthly ministry reached out to all of His scattered flock. In addition to His ministry in...the Middle East, the Book of Mormon records His appearance and teachings to the Nephites on the American continent...He also said that he would visit others “who [had] not as yet heard [His] voice.” As prophesied centuries earlier, the Savior told His followers in the Americas that he was going “to show [Himself]” to these “lost tribes of Israel, for they are not lost unto the Father, for he knoweth whither he hath taken them.”

"The Book of Mormon is a great witness that the Lord loves all people everywhere."
