I can't wait!

I truly look forward to conference from April to October and October to April. It truly amazes me. Conference is so perfect, the talks are so inspired and unique yet touch us all individually. Here are two of my past highlights from conference, I could go on forever but I will limit it to two.
This pictures is worth millions of words. This is the truth behind all that the apostles and prophets do and stand for. They are not of the world. They are true disciples of the Savior. I tear up everytime I see this picture. My heart just swells.



Robbie and I read this talk yesterday "None were with him" by Elder Holland. It is one of my favorites and of course is perfect for this Easter Season. I love this quote.


"Brothers and sisters, one of the great consolations of this Easter season is that because Jesus walked such a long, lonely path utterly alone, we do not have to do so. His solitary journey brought great company for our little version of that path—the merciful care of our Father in Heaven, the unfailing companionship of this Beloved Son, the consummate gift of the Holy Ghost, angels in heaven, family members on both sides of the veil, prophets and apostles, teachers, leaders, friends. All of these and more have been given as companions for our mortal journey because of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and the Restoration of His gospel. Trumpeted from the summit of Calvary is the truth that we will never be left alone nor unaided, even if sometimes we may feel that we are. Truly the Redeemer of us all said, “I will not leave you comfortless. [My Father and] I will come to you [and abide with you].” -Elder Holland
If only everyone in the world cherished, looked forward to and knew about conference!!

  1. We at 336 are looking forward to Conference this weekend too. It is always special and... to me... seems particularly so when Easter and April Conference are combined. Wonderful quote from Elder Holland, Marybeth.
