President Dieter F. Uchtdorf: The Sustaining of Church Officers

There were no changes in the First Presidency or Quorum of the Twelve Apostles this conference. We did, however, sustain a new Primary General Presidency, four new members of the First Quorum of the Seventy, and three new members of the Second Quorum of the Seventy. Also released were 42 Area Seventies and we sustained 43 new Area Seventies. Notable (to me any way) was the sustaining of Gifford Nielsen, star quarterback at BYU when I was a freshman, as an Area Seventy and Robert N. Packer, who accompanied Elder Bruce Hafen of the First Quorum of the Seventy as they visited our stake conference the weekend after this general conference.

    I remember some of the new Primary General Presidency, who served on the Board. THey participated in a special training in the SL tabernacle that I went to.
    Oh, Rob and I didn't catch that Gifford Nielson was called to be an Area Seventy.
