Conference Weekend

Our family looks foward to Conference... we plan favorite meals, create fun booklets for the younger children, purchase special journals for our older children and this year with the encouragement and wisdom of an older brother we all wrote down questions that we felt we needed counsil for .....



This year was a little different..Traditionally we find ourselves at the church for each conference, but this year the chapel is under consruction so we found ourselves visiting with the Reeves(a very special family)As we all gathered around the screen (Dave hooked up his laptop to the flatscreen for better viewing) I found myself marvelling at the subjects of talks and how well the Lord knows us and our concerns...My first 3 questions were answered in the first 2 talks!
I am grateful for the opportunity to sit at the feet of such loving leaders and the inspired counsil they have to send us peace and understanding....now all we have to do is sit in family counsil and impliment this plan in our own lives!
.....filling our lamps with oil...one drop at a time....
