Transcription

The divine nature of the activities of this Church was never more attested than in the developments of this last decade, when, under the inspiration of heaven, our leaders have been trying to prepare this people against the calamities which were shortly to come upon the inhabitants of the earth. At the time when the nations of the world were fomenting hate and racial prejudices, this, the Church of Jesus Christ, was sending missionaries to many of these nations, preaching the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. We were exemplifying that brotherhood here at home by the teamwork of priesthood quorums and by ward and stake groups working on welfare projects and in missionary activities.
