Elder Gerrit W. Gong of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles spoke during the Sunday afternoon session of April 2026 general conference about Easter and abiding in Christ. The following is a summary of what he said.
Elder Gong’s talk summary
The resurrected Christ walked the road to Emmaus, expounding on the scriptures to two disciples who didn’t immediately recognize Him. “As this Easter Sabbath general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints draws to a close, we, like the disciples on the road to Emmaus, long for our Savior to abide with us, for ’tis Eastertide.”
Individuals sometimes feel alone, misunderstood, burdened or unseen on their personal roads to Emmaus. But just as the disciples on the literal road to Emmaus asked Christ to abide with them, Christ promises to abide with His disciples. “When we have a question, problem or joy, Jesus Christ says, ‘I am your answer — your way, your truth, your life.’”
Christ promises to abide with His followers on their darkest days through the First Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost; and through the Second Comforter, which is Himself.
Church members should also look out for each other — no one should sit alone or walk their road to Emmaus feeling unseen. “Let us see and walk together in His love so He can abide with and in us, and us in Him, at this Eastertide and each day.”
