THE SINGLES CONFERENCE BEGINS.........

Tony is the High Councilman over the singles program and this weekend (well, actually from Thursday thru Sunday) is a regional Singles Conference and our Stake is in charge. Tonight it started off with a trip to the temple. It was awesome! There were around 50 in attendance.

We were to be in the chapel no later than 6:15 and then one of the Temple Presidency spoke to us before we went into a session. He was incredible! He had lived in Iowa when he and his wife were younger. He said he had never met an LDS person until the missionaries. He was a protestant and had questions that his ministers couldn't answer and of couse the missionarys were able to. He told some very sacred and inspiring stories about the temple! It was a wonderful start to the conference. I am so grateful for the temple and the wonderful blessings that come from attending.

I need to get back to the temple. I don't think I've been there since Oct.

You guys crack me up with forgetting your anniversaries! You guys are forgetting yours and I don't have a husband here to celebrate mine, so for me it wouldn't really matter, LOL.
