2025年9月27日,耶稣基督后期圣徒教会会长 Russell M. Nelson 在美国犹他州盐湖县 Salt Lake City 的家中逝世,享年101岁。该教会新闻室公布了这一消息。
教会表示,Nelson 因年事已高相关原因逝世,逝世时他是全球信仰组织中最年长的领袖。他是该教会195年历史上的第17任会长,自2018年1月14日起担任会长,任期超过七年。
Nelson 逝世后,总会会长团随之解散,其两位咨理已回到十二使徒定额组在列的位置,教会更新的总会领袖名单反映了这一变动。
教会公布的纪念安排包括:10月1日举行向 Nelson 致敬的特别广播;10月6日在 Salt Lake City 会议中心举行公开瞻仰;10月7日在圣殿广场会议中心举行公开葬礼,其后举行私人安葬仪式。
就在 Nelson 逝世次日,该教会在密歇根州 Grand Blanc 的一座教堂发生枪击与纵火袭击,教会同日发表声明哀悼。

Russell M. Nelson, President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Dies at 101
On September 27, 2025, Russell M. Nelson, president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, died at his home in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake County, Utah, at the age of 101, the church's newsroom announced.
The church said Nelson died from causes incident to age and that, at his passing, he was the world's oldest leader of a global faith organization. He was the 17th president in the church's 195-year history and had served as its president since January 14, 2018, a tenure of more than seven years.
Following Nelson's death, the First Presidency was dissolved and his two counselors returned to their positions in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, as reflected in the church's updated chart of general authorities and officers.
The church announced services honoring Nelson including a special tribute broadcast on October 1, a public viewing on October 6 at the Conference Center in Salt Lake City, and public funeral services on October 7 at the Conference Center on Temple Square, followed by a private burial service.
The day after Nelson's death, a shooting and arson attack struck one of the church's chapels in Grand Blanc, Michigan, and the church issued a statement of mourning the same day.
