A general authority is a member of the highest levels of leadership within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints[1] who has administrative and ecclesiastical authority over the church. A general authority's jurisdiction is church-wide, in contrast to the responsibilities of a local authority or an area authority, which relate to a particular area, unit, or department of the church. As a group, the general authorities are often referred to as "the Brethren".[1] As of April 2023, The LDS listed 95 general authorities.[2]
