"In addition to guiding more than 13 million members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, President Thomas S. Monson now leads Slate.com's annual list of the nation's most powerful octogenarians....the church has announced a total of 14 temples since President Monson became LDS Church president Feb. 2, 2008." Deseret News
Others on that octegenarian list include: Newscaster Barbara Walters, Author Mary Higgins Clark, Henry Kissinger, Senator Robert Bird, ex-President Jimmy Carter, Musician BB.King, Actress Betty White, Singer Tony Bennett, Dr. Jack Kavorkian, Author Maya Angelou, Entertainer Mel Brooks, Senator Bob Dole, Gameshow Host Bob Barker, Minister Billy Graham, entertainer Carl Riener, Jack LaLane, actor Kirk Douglas and editorialist Andy Rooney. Pretty impressive group of influential seniors and the Prophet is listed as "THE" most influencial. Hmmm. Someone got it right!
“I testify that with God, all things are possible. He is our Heavenly Father; His Son is our Redeemer. As we strive to learn His truths and then to live them, our lives and the lives of others will be abundantly blessed.” Thomas S. Monson
