Well, General Conference is over for now, until April. We had a good time listening to the talks. I love how I feel encouraged and inspired to do better - in such an uplifting way. There's nothing better than hearing the prophet of the Lord telling us exactly what we need to hear! I am always excited to get the G.C. edition of the Ensign (Church mag), and to read over the talks again. Especially the talks that I missed, or only partly heard, because of the kids.
For those of you who don't know, General Conference is a church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints/Mormon) meeting that happens every six months. The leaders of the church speak at the conference center in SLC, and it's also broadcast to meetinghouses across the world, through satelite, and over the internet. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs, and there are talks given. Really a wonderful way to spend the weekend. Oh, and it's fabulous to be able to watch it on T.V.! Much nicer to let the kids take their naps at their regular times, and not have to keep them quiet at the church.
I loved that my kids were able to take their naps at their regular time too. It makes such a difference. I love conference weekend. I wish we had it every few months, instead of every 6 months.
ReplyDeletei LOVE being able to watch it at home too. instead of sitting on those hard chairs in a freezing stake center with kids that are getting tired, you get to enjoy it on a soft couch with kids that can take a nap when they need to. its awesome!
