Thomas Spencer Monson (born August 21, 1927) is an American religious leader and author, and the 16th and current President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). As president, Monson is considered by adherents of the religion to be a "prophet, seer, and revelator" of God's will on earth. A printer by trade, Monson has spent most of his life engaged in various church leadership positions and in public service.

Monson was ordained an apostle at age 36, served in the First Presidency under three church presidents and was the President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles from March 12, 1995 until he became President of the Church.[1] He succeeded Gordon B. Hinckley as church president on February 3, 2008.[2]

Monson has received four honorary doctorate degrees, as well as the Boy Scouts of America's Silver Buffalo and the World Organization of the Scout Movement's Bronze Wolf—both awards the highest given in each organization. Monson is Chairman of the Church Boards of Trustees/Education of the Church Educational System, and he was appointed by Ronald Reagan to the U.S. President's Task Force for Private Sector Initiatives. Monson is married to Frances Beverly Johnson Monson, and they are the parents of three children. Source: wikipedia.org
