Getting back on the A to Z Challenge today...with the letter G. This weekend I had the opportunity to participate in the 183rd Annual General Conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. For those of my readers/visitors that are not aware, this is an opportunity for the leaders of our Church to instruct us all weekend long. It is a spiritual feast even if you don't believe in what I do...you can appreciate being able to be instructed in what you believe in for 2 hour periods twice a day in a weekend. Today I will do my favorite parts of each session.Saturday Morning Session
Memory: I got to be at the Conference Center for this session. So that was awesome! It was great to hang out with cousin Thomas!
My favorite speaker: This session was a tie between Sister Dalton and Bishop Davies. Sister Dalton talked about the power of women and Bishop Davies talked about the strength that comes from a sure foundation in the gospel. Both were what I needed!!
Saturday Afternoon Session
Memory: Cuddling with my nephew Evan--he did such a nice job staying quiet for everyone to be able to hear.
My favorite speaker: Elder Cook talked about finding peace in this time...another thing that is really need!
Sunday Morning Session
Memory: President Monson...he put Vivian Park on fire!!
My favorite speaker: But really President Monson was my favorite speaker because his talk reminded me that obedience is the thing that I really need to focus on.
Sunday Afternoon Session
Memory: A very hungry Avi and "Stuff a turkey through its beak!"
My favorite speaker: That quote came from Elder Holland--all about believing!!
