Minasan, conbanwa, Ireshaima, Ireshaimase. Welcome to another episode of the Mormon newscast. This is Radio Free Mormon

with my very capable co-anchor, Rebecca Bibliotheca, Bill Reel has the night off. But Rebecca has a very

important and breaking story to share with us. I think it is

a sign of the times. Jesus is coming soon. It is. It's something very interesting. And it all just

happened yesterday, like so quickly. So if we can pull up the slides, we can dive right in. Okay. Perfect.

This one has the stories for tonight. We'll come back to that all right. But here's the first slide, right? Yep. This is it. This is absolutely it. So what I'm going to be talking about, and like I said, that's just happened literally within one day, just yesterday. I woke up to all of this. We're going to be talking about mothers. And I did say that with an S, mothers in heaven say what? That is kind of

what I'm calling it. And I had a lot of fun with AI making all kinds of pictures of mothers in heaven.

I probably had too much fun, spent too much time on it. Anyway, so what happened this weekend?

We all anticipated and knew that President Oakes, that would be Dallan H. Oaks, the next in line.

Yes. I'm sorry. I just need to interrupt you to say something I forgot to say that it is Monday,

July 14th, 2025. So this happened yesterday. That is important. Yeah, because there was a

question about when this happened. If this was old news, no, this is probably the most fresh news that I've ever been able to put out there.

So we had kind of been anticipating that President Oakes was going to be making a trip to Europe to speak some kind of a fireside, a conference in Belgium.

And everybody kind of thought, well, that's interesting. He really is looking very frail when you see the pictures of him. And so we thought this must be really important. Is this some kind of a Belgian rescue? What is this? We didn't know. So we had people kind of on standby that we're going to, you know, who spoke the language, listening to the conference. So and that was going to take place Sunday, July 13th at night, right? Last night. So we all kind of had that in the back of our mind. And here it is in the church news mentioned. It's happened. And here it is. President Dalton H. Oaks encourages members in Europe to follow Christ and to seek unity. So he gave a scripted, you know, teleprompter kind of a talk to everybody.

This is an actual picture of the address.

Yeah.

He does have his teleprompters.

Yep, he does have teleprompters, yep.

And so he read from those, and he did give his remarks with teleprompters in the evening on July 13th.

And this will help clear up a little bit of confusion. So what happened to me in the

morning before we play this clip is a friend of mine who lives in Belgium, reached out to me and said,

you know what? I zoomed into my sacrament meeting and President Oaks was there. Isn't that amazing?
