Tomorrow the Lord Will Do Wonders among You, Jeffrey R. Holland, April 2016
During the Sunday afternoon session of April 2018 general conference, President Russell M. Nelson announced a significant change to the way members serve and care for each other.

What is ministering?
"Brothers and sisters, we have a heaven-sent opportunity as an entire Church to demonstrate “pure religion … undefiled before God”—“to bear one another’s burdens, that they may be light” and to “comfort those that stand in need of comfort,” to minister to the widows and the fatherless, the married and the single, the strong and the distraught, the downtrodden and the robust, the happy and the sad—in short, all of us, every one of us, because we all need to feel the warm hand of friendship and hear the firm declaration of faith."
"Let me stress that we at Church headquarters don’t need to know how or where or when you make contact with your people; we just need to know and care that you do make it and that you bless them in every way you can."
