Wow, Uchtdorf dropped from FP.

Not sure how I feel about that...Originally Posted by Brian
On second thought, I am sure, but will keep it to myself. 🤬
We should form a group.

The ladies might miss him though.
Word is, if the folks at Deseret Book had the power, they would put Uchtdorf's picture on every book in the place.
He is the closest thing the Church has to a rock star. And there does not appear to be another after him. (Not Bednar, for certain.)
He is 77, the same age as Jeffrey Holland. Where are they in the line of succession?
Oaks, Ballard, Holland, Uchtdorf, Bednar, Cool, D. Todd, .....
Opps. Edit, forgot Eyring.
Oaks, Ballard, Holland, Eyring, Uchtdorf, Bednar, Cook, D. Todd, .....

I did not realize Bednar was that senior. He is 65; could be president for a long time.
I was trying to figure out what apostle was nicknamed Cool D.

I won't. I feel bad about it and will miss him as a FP member.
I suppose it's good for President Oaks (now 85?) to be in First Presidency for a while to learn the ropes, since he's the likely successor to Pres. Nelson. On the other hand, I remember when Harold B. Lee became president at the age of 73, I think. He signed my mission call so I was paying close attention to him. I think he passed 18 months later. Everyone was shocked. So you never know.

“True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”

since they cut the Priesthood session down to just once a year, we might only get him twice a year (once per conference)
by the way, what am I supposed to do come fall general conference on Saturday Night? I'm not much for crafts? I'll be looking for continued spiritual guidance from Kirk Herbstreit or Yogi Roth
