The Elders Quorum teaches principles of Christ like service and helps us understand our responsibilities. We will be most effective when we align our service in the Church with the work of God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. The Elders Quorum helps us gain a vision of:
• God’s plan of happiness.
• The work of salvation and exaltation.
• The purpose of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The Purpose of the Church
Jesus Christ established His Church to enable individuals and families to do the work of salvation and exaltation (see Ephesians 4:11-13).
11 And he “gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and
some, ‘pastors and teachers;
12 For the “perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the
body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto
a ‘perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
To help accomplish this divine purpose, the Church and its leaders provide:
Priesthood Authority and Keys
Through the priesthood, God accomplishes the work of salvation and exaltation. The priesthood authority and keys needed to direct God’s work on earth were restored to the Prophet Joseph Smith (see Doctrine and Covenants 110:11-16; 112:30). These keys are held by Church leaders today. They call and authorize others to assist in God’s work (see Doctrine and Covenants 107:8, 65-67).
The Elders Quorum meets the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month. We also provide services to members of the community who could use a helping hand. We welcome the fellowship of all who are interested.
