A Latter-day Saint leader says Sen. Harry Reid took time to minister to fellow members, “Even during his years as one of the nation’s most powerful political leaders.'
, Reid and his wife became members of the church when they were 19 years old, shortly after they were married. Ballard, president of the church’s Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, said Reid remained a man of faith throughout his career.
“In more recent years, we shared a similar plight,” Ballard said. “We each lost sight in one eye at about the same time — he in his right eye and me in my left. We used to remind each other that we could walk down the street, arm in arm. He could help me see things on the ‘left,’ and I could help him see things on the ‘right!’”where he had urged students to remember that a career serving others means you’re also serving God.
“Of Harry Reid’s religious leaders, many have commented that he was the best minister in their congregation,” Ballard said. “Even during his years as one of the nation’s most powerful political leaders, he always made time to minister ‘to the least of these,’ and he did it one by one.”
