In this third segment on the momentous events of June, 1978, when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced it would allow all worthy male members receive its Priesthood, former LDS Church News staffers and editors Geri Avant and John Hart tell how the story attracted callers from around the world. They tell about their interview with then President of the Church Spencer W. Kimball and his struggle to learn the mind and will of the Lord.
