ATLANTA, Ga. — Elder M. Russell Ballard of the Quorum of the Twelve, and Elder Marlin K. Jensen of the Presidency of the Seventy, joined members and missionaries here Nov. 18 — bearing fervent testimony of the Savior and encouraging those in attendance to use a "balanced effort" to build the kingdom in the Atlanta area.

"This is the Lord's work," Elder Ballard said. "As we invite Him into the work, we will reap great reward."

Elder Jensen told those in the congregation that they can achieve a "balanced effort" as members, leaders, missionaries and stake missionaries join to convert those seeking the truth, retain converts and activate members of the Church.
