Elder Cook Visits Brazil
The Apostles travel around the world to minister to people and teach them about Jesus Christ.
Elder Quentin L. Cook and his wife, Sister Mary Cook, went to Brazil to visit members of the Church. They went to teach and share the love of Jesus Christ.
They visited the big city of Belo Horizonte. The name of that city means “beautiful horizon.” Elder Cook said it has the most beautiful sunsets he has ever seen!
Many people came to hear Elder Cook speak in a stake conference. He invited everyone to be a light. That means being a good example and helping others, like Jesus did.

Elder and Sister Cook visited a missionary training center. Missionaries share the light of Jesus Christ every day! How can you be a light at home, in your neighborhood, and at school?
“When we are a light, we influence the world for the better.”
