The Church Hath Need of Every Person

Therefore, let every man stand in his own office, and labor in his own calling; and let not the head say unto the feet it hath no need of the feet; for without the feet how shall the body be able to stand? Also the body hath need of every member, that all may be edified together, and the system may be kept perfect. D&C 84:109-110

" God bless you, my beloved associates in this great work. We are all in this together. None of us can slip down without taking the whole Church down somewhat. None of us can do better without lifting the whole Church somewhat. You are important. Everyone is important. We are all a part of it. We can do a little better. I pray that we will work at it just a little harder, with a little more devotion, a little more love, a little more prayer, a little more enthusiasm. This is the Savior's work. This is not my church, it is the Savior's church. He stands at the head. We are merely here to do His bidding, to listen to His voice, and try to give expression to it the best way we know how." President Gordon B. Hinckley
