Description:

Talk delivered by Elder Henry B. Eyring to the Tokyo South Missionary Conference on October 19th, 1998 in Tokyo, Japan. Some snippets: "I come as a representative of the Lord Jesus Christ, and also his prophet, President Hinkley, who loves Asia." "I have a testimony that the Lord plans to build and grow the Church in a dramatic way in Japan...The Lord is building a foundation, and from that foundation will come a miracle. And I will even describe that miracle for you." "The way that it will occur is that there will be a great change in the hearts of the members of the Church in Japan. It is just beginning now and so it is hard for you to see. But there will come a day when the members of the Church in Japan will count it a privilege to speak to those with whom t hey work, and their neighbors about the Church. That is not true now. It is not hard for a Japanese person, for many reasons, to speak easily to the people they work with, and to their neighbors, and to their family about their faith. But that will change, that is going to change, and you who are here as missionaries will go home and help bring about these changes."
