LDS Quorums of the Seventy now called General Authority Seventies

LDS General Authorities in the first and second quorums of the Seventy are now being called General Authority Seventies.

“You no longer need to distinguish between the first and second quorums of Seventy, they are all now just General Authority Seventies,” church spokesman Eric Hawkins said in an email.

The Organization section of lds.org already shows the naming difference.
