About the cover

President Gordon B. Hinckley, center, with President Thomas S. Monson, first counselor in the First Presidency, and President James E. Faust, second counselor, enjoy looking over the elegant, completed lobby of the new Conference Center. Their visit to the grand new home of general conference contrasts with the organization of the Church 170 years earlier in a narrow, borrowed cabin.Articles about the center, described as a symbol of the dedication of Church members worldwide, begin on page 6.
