Uchtdorf of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and chairman of the Church's Missionary Executive Council joins this episode of the Church News Podcast to discuss missionary work, the COVID-19 pandemic and the resilient and enthusiastic missionaries who continue to move the work forward in ways previously unimagined.
