1 My servant, W. Wallace Smith, having served the church faithfully as an apostle, as a counselor to the President of the High Priesthood, and for the last twenty yeasrs as Prophet, Seer, and Revelator and President of the High Priesthood and the Church, is now honorably released from his heavy burden. Retired from that office with the title President Emeritus, he should be free to minister as widely as his strength, interests, and spiritual leadings might suggest. His reward is sure, as is that of his companion, Rosamond, who has been a strength and support over the yeasr, oftentimes in ways known only to me. They should both now be afforded the honor and respect due them for their years of service.

2 Duane E. Couey is called and should be ordained as a counselor to the President of the High Priesthoood and the Church and as a member of the Quorum of the First Presidency. He has extensive knowledge of the workings of the quorum and brings to this office an unusual degree of loyalty as well as a dep devotion to the cause of the kingdom. His ordination should be provided for as soon as practicable.

3 Maurice L. Draper has served as a counselor to the President of the Hight President of the High Priesthood and as a member of the Quorum of the First Presidency for nearly twenty years. During that time he has served with uncommon faithfulness and skill, and he is commended for his service in this regard. To relieve him of the pressing weight of administrative detail, however, and to allow him to respond to interest in teaching, writing, and ministerial development, he is to be free for assignment by the First Presidency as a high priest acting as a consultant to the Quorum of the First Presidency whereeve and however his skills can be used most effectively in the continuing assessment and development of the educational and ministerial programs of the church.

Doctrine and Covenants Section 153, paragraphs 1-3
(Scripture unique to the Community of Christ)
