The next LDS apostle has not been officially announced yet after the recent reorganization of the First Presidency in October 2025. President Dallin H. Oaks was named as the 18th president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- day Saints on October 14, 2025, succeeding President Russell M. Nelson who passed away in September 2025. Jeffrey R. Holland now serves as President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and is next in line to become prophet based on seniority. When a new apostle is called, it typically follows a divine and prayerful process, and the announcement is often made public in due course. There are community speculations and discussions about potential candidates, but no official name has been released yet since the latest leadership change.
