President Dallin Harris Oaks was announced as the 18th president and prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Tuesday, October 14, 2025. The announcement was made during a live broadcast from Salt Lake City, Utah. President Oaks was sustained and set apart earlier in the day.
In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the prophet is chosen through a divinely inspired process. When the prophet passes away, the First Presidency is dissolved. The Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, led by the longest-serving Apostle, assumes leadership, confirming the new prophet through revelation and priesthood authority. President Oaks, 93, succeeds President Russell M. Nelson, who passed away September 27, 2025. Funeral services and tributes for President Nelson are available on the Church website at https://newsroom.churchofjesuschrist.org/article/president-nelson-official-tributes-services
