Nelson, then a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles, dedicated Hungary for missionary work in a prayer and a ceremony on Budapest's Gellert Hill. On June 1, 1988, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints received official recognition and the first missionaries arrived. The Church has maintained a small presence in the country since the late 1800s.[1]
Hungary's first meetinghouse was dedicated in October 1989, by President Thomas S. Monson, then a counselor in the First Presidency, with President Nelson also attending.
