Church offers resources to support military members and families worldwide

This November, as the United States observes Veterans Day, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is expanding support for members who serve or have served in their nation’s armed forces around the world. The Church strives to minister to military members, veterans and their families through faith, belonging and Christ-centered support wherever they serve. To help them and their Church leaders find resources and support, a new initiative offers a way for members to identify their military service in Gospel Tools and an updated website. Latter-day Saints serve or have served as soldiers, medics and chaplains and in other military roles worldwide. These members and their families often face circumstances unique to military life, said Todd Linton, director of the Church’s Military Relations, Chaplain Services and Prison Ministries Division of the Priesthood and Family Department.
