Today I would like to suggest four titles that I believe apply to all priesthood holders around the world-titles that may help us recognize our individual roles in God’s eternal plan and our potential as priesthood holders in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And some describe our positions within the Church. Other titles describe our occupations in the world, such as doctor, soldier, or craftsman. For example, some titles describe our roles in families, such as son, brother, husband, and father. Many of us have multiple titles, and each says something important about our identity. We men sometimes identify ourselves by titles. I hope you can feel the brotherhood that unites us, and I pray that here, among your brothers, you will find belonging, support, and friendship. I congratulate you young men who have chosen to be here today. I commend you fathers and grandfathers who have brought your sons and grandsons. My dear brethren and beloved friends, it fills my heart with gratitude and joy to be with you.
