SAO PAULO, Brazil — Alziro Lauriano da Silva, a high councilor in the Parque Bristol Brazil Stake, joined the Church in 1983. The former bishop says the priesthood has blessed his life in many ways.
"I am so thankful to my Father in Heaven to be a holder of the priesthood because through this priesthood I have witnessed miracles and have felt the presence of the Lord. My greatest goal is to take my family with me someday to the celestial kingdom."
