List of area seventies of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
At the April 1995 general conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), church president Gordon B. Hinckley announced the creation of a new leadership position known as the area authority.[1] In 1997, area authorities were renamed area authority seventies and ordained to the office of seventy. The church announced that these seventies would become members of a Quorum of the Seventy based upon the geographic region to which they were assigned.[2] Later, the title "area authority seventy" was shortened to area seventy, which is the title currently in use.
Formation of the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Quorums of the Seventy[]
When area authority seventies were first called in 1997, the Third, Fourth, and Fifth Quorums were created. At that time, the Third Quorum consisted of those seventies living in the church's Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and Pacific areas. The Fourth Quorum comprised those living in the Mexico, Central America, and South America areas. The Fifth Quorum of the Seventy comprised those living in the United States and Canada[3]
Formation of the Sixth Quorum of the Seventy[]
In July 2004, the Sixth Quorum of the Seventy was organized from the Fifth Quorum because the number of quorum members exceeded 70, the number of members prescribed by scripture. The Fifth Quorum then comprised area seventies serving in the church's North America Northwest, North America West, Idaho, Utah North, Utah Salt Lake City, and Utah South areas, while the Sixth Quorum comprised those living in the North America Central, North America East, North America Northeast, North America Southeast, and North America Southwest areas.[4]
Formation of the Seventh and Eighth Quorums of the Seventy[]
In July 2005, the church announced that, due to the great distance members of the Third and Fourth Quorums of the Seventy had to travel to meet as quorums, the Seventh and Eighth Quorums of the Seventy would be created. The Third Quorum included those area seventies living in the church's Africa Southeast, Africa West, Europe Central, Europe East, and Europe West areas. The Fourth Quorum included those members living in the Brazil North, Brazil South, Chile, and South America South areas. The Fourth Quorum included those living in the Central America, Mexico North, Mexico South, South America North, and South America West areas.[5]
Formation of the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Quorums of the Seventy[]
On May 19, 2020, the church announced the creation of the Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Quorums of the Seventy, to enhance Quorum functionality, improve geographic alignment, and enhance cultural and language similarities among quorum members. The announcement also noted the adjustments would assist members of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and Presidency of the Seventy in providing more time and greater convenience in interactions with area seventies around the world. Additionally, the church announced changes in the geographical makeup of each quorum, with the composition of each of the now-ten quorums of area seventies being alphabetical by church area. These changes will take effect on June 1, 2020.[6]
The quorums will be geographically aligned with those serving in the church's international areas as follows: Third–Africa, Fourth–Asia, Fifth–Brazil, Sixth–Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico areas, Seventh–Europe and Middle East/Africa North areas, Eighth–Philippines and Pacific Islands, and Ninth–South America areas.[6]
The final three quorums will consist those serving North America, with the North America Central, North America Northeast, and North America Southeast areas comprising the Tenth Quorum, those in the Western United States as the Eleventh Quorum, and Utah area seventies as the Twelfth Quorum.[6]
Changes Made to Sustaining/Releasing Area Seventies[]
In 2021, following a two-year hiatus due to the coronavirus and related restrictions, a Leadership Session was held in conjunction with the April 2021 General Conference. As part of that leadership session, church president Russell M. Nelson announced a change to how area seventies would be sustained each April going forward. Rather than having a massive list of individual names for new area seventies read over the pulpit during the session of General Conference when other changes in general leadership would be presented, the list of 77 new area seventies for 2021 was read out loud by D. Todd Christofferson, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, after which Nelson called for a sustaining vote on that list.[7]
Since the list of names had been presented before the traditional sustaining (Saturday afternoon), when the time came to present changes in Church leadership, Dallin H. Oaks offered the following statement: "It is proposed that we sustain the new Area Seventies as announced by the Church earlier this week."[8]
Subsequently, in late July, M. Russell Ballard, Acting President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, sent out a letter noting a list of 66 area seventies who would be released effective August 1. The letter noted that the releases of area seventies would continue to be announced by letter going forward, and those releases would continue to be effective August 1 (which marks the same day each year on which most other area or Church headquarters assignments are adjusted). It is anticipated that, with the advanced notice of the releases going forward, during each October General Conference, the Church will call for a vote of appreciation for those whose releases had previously been confirmed.
Areas consolidated over the years[]
In the intervening years, along with the changes announced in quorum composition, the church's geographic areas were consolidated and realigned. Now each quorum is composed of area seventies in the following areas:[6]
- Third Quorum: Africa Central, Africa South, and Africa West Areas
- Fourth Quorum: Asia and Asia North Areas
- Fifth Quorum: Brazil Areaof
- Sixth Quorum: Caribbean, Central America, and Mexico Areas.
- Seventh Quorum: Europe, Europe East, and Middle East/Africa North Areas
- Eighth Quorum: Pacific and Philippines areas.
- Ninth Quorum: South America Northwest and South America South areas.
- Tenth Quorum: North America Central, North America Northeast, and North America Southeast Areas
- Eleventh Quorum: North America Southwest and North America West Areas
- Twelfth Quorum: Utah Area
