Stake Conference

We had stake conference and we got a new stake presidency - therefore a visit from some General Authorities. I guess they travel in companionship's now - did you know that? Anyway, Elder Rasband and Elder Renlen(?) came and gave great talks. I was proud of myself for remembering a notebook to take notes. Elder Renlan said to pay attention to the hymns and that the hymn, "How Firm a Foundation" is on of the few that the Savior is talking to us. I never had realized that. Elder Rasband (who spoke at the last Gen. Conf) shared how the gospel of Jesus Christ is a safe harbor: 1)Eternal families, 2) Ward and Stake are a defense from the storm, 3) The Temple is a refuge from the storm, 4) Build your testimony in Jesus Christ - "We talk of Christ". Excellent words.
