How to participate

Invitation video in Spanish (subtitled in Portuguese):

Elder D. Todd Christofferson

Elder Christofferson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles speaks Spanish and translates his own general conference talks into Spanish. “Yo fui misionero de tiempo completo en Argentina (…) A partir de esa experiencia y en muchas otras asignaciones subsiguientes como Autoridad General, gané un profundo respeto y amor por los miembros de habla hispana de nuestra Iglesia,” dijo el élder Christofferson. “Y en particular, por nuestros jóvenes de habla hispana, que son valientes y sensibles al Espíritu; es más, son un gran ejemplo para nosotros. ¡Me encanta participar con ustedes y servir a su lado!”

Youth are invited to prayerfully ponder what questions they have for Elder and Sister Christofferson and submit them on the event page any time before or during the event.

Leaders may wish to make this Face to Face event a special Mutual activity. Youth may also choose to get together with family and friends and watch the broadcast together. Youth are also encouraged to pray about who might be ready to hear from one of the Lord’s Apostles and then invite a nonmember friend to participate in the event as well.

“No tengo ninguna duda de que la tecnología que maneja eventos como Cara a Cara ha sido preparada por el Señor,” dijo el élder Christofferson. “Tengo la seguridad de que Él nos sonríe cuando usamos dicha tecnología para que Su evangelio se extienda y llenemos la Tierra con la verdad; y para unir a Sus santos. Joven y jovencita: Te animo a invitar a tus amigos, vecinos y seres queridos al programa Cara a Cara. Y cuando este termine, espero que tú y yo hallemos la forma de compartir lo que hemos conversado con nuestros amigos alrededor del mundo.”
