One way to honor those who served this Veteran’s Day is to do what Mandy did: go looking for their names. Reviewing hints and attaching accurate sources helps bridge generations and ensures everyone is remembered.

Recent heavy rains in Gaza directly affected more than 106,000 people, damaging or destroying shelters, latrines, and belongings.
Three children aged four, five and eight were killed along with their mother over the weekend when a sand dune collapsed onto their tent in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, after heavy rainfall.
The deaths happened as families, exhausted by war and the protracted crisis, prepare to face a fourth winter under very dire conditions. Some 1.7 million displaced people are still living in tents, makeshift shelters, or damaged buildings exposed to flooding, cold and collapse.
The flooding caused by the heavy rains is compounding a sanitation crisis created by the war. No wastewater treatment plant in Gaza is currently operational.
UNICEF and partners are distributing tarpaulins, winter clothing, blankets, and hygiene supplies, clearing blocked sewers and stormwater basins, and installing sandbags at sites to mitigate the impact of flooding. In the past week alone, we reached at least 10,000 children with winter clothing and thermal blankets, distributed tarpaulins to families whose tents have flooded, and cleared sewage and stormwater at more than 50 locations.
The emergency response is vital but is not a long-term solution. Tents and tarpaulins offer little protection against severe storms, and damaged water and sanitation systems continue to put children’s health and lives at risk.
UNICEF urgently calls on the Israeli authorities to allow the immediate entry of pumps, generators, spare parts and other materials needed to repair water and sanitation infrastructure, including the Sheikh Radwan stormwater basin and the Sheikh Ejleen Wastewater Treatment Plant.
We urge the international community to join the call for the entry of all life-saving humanitarian supplies and equipment, and to provide urgent funding for UNICEF's winter response in Gaza.

The Tampa Florida Temple is taking shape beside a tranquil body of water that borders the property, creating a beautiful natural setting for the rising structure. The temple's warm-colored exterior and distinctive architectural features are reflected on the water's surface, offering a striking view as construction progresses. The central tower rises above the roofline, adding prominence to the elegant design. (Photo: Don Ashley) #tampatemple #TampaFloridaTemple

Church News Today, Tuesday Nov. 10, 2026
President Dallin H. Oaks has reminded social media followers that “Jesus Christ is the way to joy and peace.” He wrote: “I pray for you. I love you,” and added “You have a Heavenly Father who has provided a plan for you. Trust in Him. With His help, you can find peace despite the trials and obstacles of mortality.” The President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints also expressed gratitude for social media, saying it “allows me to provide you with encouragement, direction and a reminder of eternal truths.”
And this past weekend, groundbreaking services were held for the Cincinnati Ohio Temple, which now enters its construction phase. It will be Ohio’s third temple — fourth, if you count the historic Kirtland Temple, which is a Church history site rather than an operating house of the Lord. Elder Alan T. Phillips, a General Authority Seventy and member of the United States Northeast Area presidency, said the Cincinnati temple will be “a light to this city, pointing all who see it to Jesus Christ.”

What a beautiful privilege it is to travel the world bearing testimony of the name of Jesus Christ.
My recent assignment to the Europe Central Area of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints brought feelings of love and appreciation for the service and sacrifice of all who have dedicated their lives to our Savior.

Yesterday I had the privilege of representing The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in a special interfaith meeting at Palacio San Martín in Buenos Aires, Argentina, alongside Pope Leo XIV and other important civic and religious leaders.
I was especially touched by the Pope’s expressions of respect for human dignity and the importance of uniting our efforts to protect human life and the world in which we live.
Echoing these teachings of Jesus Christ, our prophet President Dallin H. Oaks has recently urged all of God’s children to become peacemakers by following the first and second great commandments of loving God and neighbor.
May each of us live by these principles and continue to find common ground with those with whom we share this beautiful world.

We cannot carry the message of the Restoration to all the world—we cannot be the light the Lord wants us to be—if we are not peacemakers.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was established on April 6, 1830, a day we honor in the Church.
We are nearing that Bicentennial Anniversary.
I want to recognize you as a part of this great work as we celebrate the Restoration in these latter days.

Can you and I overcome the propensities of the natural man or woman through willpower and goal setting and determination and discipline?
No.
We learn in the Book of Mormon that the Savior is at the center of our transformation:
“For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint THROUGH the Atonement of Christ the Lord” (Mosiah 3:19).

I recognize that many of you face significant challenges and uncertainties that cause stress, anxiety, and heartache. I pray for you. I love you.
I am thankful that social media allows me to provide you with encouragement, direction, and a reminder of eternal truths.
Please remember this: whatever difficulties you may be experiencing, Jesus Christ is the way to joy and peace.
People who subscribe to the doctrine of the gospel of Jesus Christ find that it makes their lives happier, more significant, and more resistant to the difficulties we all experience.
You have a Heavenly Father who has provided a plan for you. Trust in Him. With His help, you can find peace despite the trials and obstacles of mortality.
With love,
President Oaks

Protecting children requires more than commitments. It demands concrete action to make every school a safe, inclusive and supportive environment.
Governments, educators, families, communities and technology companies all have a responsibility to protect learners, both offline and online. This requires effective prevention and reporting mechanisms, sustained investment and accountability.
