Newsroom staff recently sat down with Elder David G. LaFrance and his wife, Sister Lori LaFrance. Elder LaFrance was named a member of the sixth Quorum of the Seventy of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at the April 2020 general conference. He is responsible for the North America Northeast Area, Toronto Co-ordinating Council. The LaFrances were invited to share their thoughts on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is observed in Canada on September 30. “It is a day to honour the survivors, families and communities affected by the residential school system,” noted Elder LaFrance. “This day holds significance as it encourages reflection, education and action toward healing and reconciliation.”
