[Apostle Richard R. Lyman] 9:00 a.m.

Quarterly meeting of the Council of the Twelve

Perhaps the most important matter discussed was my appeal for greater charity toward our church members who views are not strictly orthodox. I say if 100 of the most successful, most ambitious, most prosperous, most studious, and most successful church members in Santa Monica Ward are being pushed out of ward activity if not out of the church then there may be something wrong with the leadership somewhere: the bishop, the high council, the Stake Presidency, the Council of the Twelve, The First Presidency of the Church.
