The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square’s nine-day, four-concert stop in the Philippines did exactly what it set out to do: spread the hope made possible by Savior of the world.
“This is a worldwide tour, and a primary objective of ours is to carry a message of hope in Jesus Christ,” said Choir President Michael O. Leavitt. “I don’t know many countries around the world where that is a more important — or may I add, more welcomed message — than the Philippines. This is a country that’s 97% Christian, and they’re willing to talk about it — and they want to talk about it.”
