178th Annual General Conference

What an awesome conference! I feel so blessed to be a member of this church. As I stood in my living room and sustained these men, the spirit was so strong. I have no doubt, but know with all my heart, that these men are called of God to lead and guide us. If we obey their counsel we will be protected from the evils of the day. We were especially excited to see our friends Marilee and Adam Christofferson during the press conference. They were there with Adam's uncle (not dad) Elder Todd Christofferson, who was just called to be our new Apostle. Wow, how exciting! I can only imagine the joy their family is feeling today. As we sat here and listened to him speak today, we felt his spirit and know he was called by God. What an amazing Uncle you have Adam. And how great are those conference packets for the kids. We have them for the kids each year, but this was the first conference in I don't know how long, that I was able to listen to the entire thing with no interruptions. They are older now and love to color, draw and write, so they were perfect. We had one for each of the kids and they loved them. Thank you people who put these together! You are the BEST! Spencer even sat there and worked on that packet for the FULL two hours this morning. YAH!! He had to know the name of very speaker that stood up. He wrote their name and really listened to the talks. I LOVE LOVE LOVE these packets!
