I would love to hear about what
you all learned in General Conference!!!! It was an interesting conference
weekend for us, because we saw the first session two times. And thats it (so
far). We went over to a members house and watched the saturday morning session
and then ate dinner with them. Then the next day we went to the church and the
Branch President had recorded a session to bring for people to watch (no
internet in the church) and he recorded this same session.
But in a way, it was perfect. Because the talk by Elder Packer about the atonement was perfect for Gloria, the one investigator who came. Sunday morning we went around inviting everyone we hadn´t invited yet to the conference and we had contact with her after two weeks with nothing. So that was a miracle. We knocked her door and she came down and talked to us. Gloria is working in another town right now and has rough hours so we haven´t been able to talk to her at all. But she´d come home just as we passed by in the morning. And she came and stayed for both hours of the session. It was so great to see her there, soaking it in.
And can I say I LOVE that they let the leaders talk in thier own language? It really makes a difference to hear the speakers own voice, and so its awesome that they can do that. And its just so much easier to express yourself in your native language. So I´m really happy they changed that.

So share with me your experiences from conference! I´d love
to hear! We´re going to be watching conference during our study time in the
mornings this week, so thankfully i will still be able to see it. Just little
by little instead of all in 2 days.
Love you lots! Have a good week :)
