5 YOUNG WOMEN GENERAL PRESIDENCY SISTER MICHELLE D. CRAIG 1st Counselor SISTER BONNIE H. CORDON President SISTER BECKY CRAVEN 2nd Counselor What do General Auxiliary leaders do? General Auxiliary leaders have the specific responsibility to oversee the organizations and programs for the members they are called to serve. They travel the world training local leaders and working with them to learn more about their communities and the needs of the people. They also get to know the members by making individual home visits. General Auxiliary leaders represent their auxiliary members by serving on Church leadership councils, executive committees, and boards. They also contribute ideas to Church messaging and help review Church materials, such as Come Follow Me. These faithful leaders work hard to make sure the needs of all of God s children are met.
