So, short post but I have to say how excited I am to be participating again in Stake Conference this November. My Women's Group is going to be joined with the Men's Group that Sister Virginia Walker, a very well known musician in our stake, put together almost a year ago. A couple other younger girl will be joining us also, and so the 9 of us women and 8 men will be singing "Jesu, The Very Thought is Sweet", flutes, organ, and all, at the Adult Session, Saturday evening. It is going to sound sooo amazing! These are such talented people and Virginia just knows how certain voices blend together, so she always has a good group performing. I am soo excited to be a part of it.
The exciting part about it is we are having an Apostle come for Conference! We don't know who yet, we find out mid September. we haven't had an Apostle for a loooooong time in this Stake. We had Elder Bednar come prior to him becoming an Apostle. Which was still really cool. But I have actually never met or seen any of the General Authorities in my life, so I am really excited about this!!

Have you never been to the Conference Center for a session of General Conference? Maybe we should try to go this October! Come visit!
Never been to General Conference! I was 20 people short of getting in Fall of 2004 I think it was when Elder Bednar was announced as the newest Apostle. That was the last, and only time, I was at the Conference Center. I know, sad, isn't it. Pay for my flight and I'll come! =P
Yup, I remember Elder Bednar being up there. We had Elder Ballard not too long ago, really great.
