President Nelson Reaches India on Global Ministry Tour

“The influence of the temple will be felt not only by the people here in this particular part of India, but it will bless the people of the entire nation and neighboring nations,” said President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as he reached Bengaluru, India, Thursday, April 19, 2018.
During the recent general conference, President Nelson announced that a new temple would be built in Bengaluru, the first Mormon temple to be built in India, a country with more than 1.3 billion people of many faiths, including Hinduism, Islam and Christianity.
“It was a thrill for me to receive the real impression that I should announce that there will be a temple here in India,” he explained in an interview. “The temple is our ultimate destination here on planet Earth. All the blessings that God has in store for His faithful people come in the temple.”
Bengaluru, the capital of India's southern Karnataka state, is the fifth of eight cities on his global ministry tour. The Latter-day Saint prophet traveled to Asia following a series of meetings in Europe and Africa.
President Nelson is joined on the worldwide tour by his wife, Wendy, and Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and his wife, Patricia.

Let the congregation of the Lord cast a single eye to the glory of His promise, that the whole body be filled with light. Peace to the saints in India and God bless. ❤
“The light of the body is the eye; if, therefore, thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.” - 3 Nephi 13:22
