General Conference

Hi everyone! As some of you know this past weekend was General Conference. To those of you who don't know what that is, it's when the LDS church spend two hours in the morning, and two in the afternoon on Saturday and Sunday listening to our Prophet and his Apostles.

My family has a tradition for conference. Every Sunday morning, my dad makes us Swedish Pancakes (some people call them Crepes). They are delicious and I love the tradition! I'm glad that my dad grew up with this tradition and was willing to pass it onto us :)

I love traditions! But conference isn't all about winning the "Swedish Pancake Eating Contest", it's about listening to the talks, getting spiritually fed, and getting some questions answered.

I can't say that I had a favorite talk this year, I loved bits and pieces from each of them. I took notes in a notebook, and left it back at home. I would share a lot more of what I liked, but I have a bad memory so I would have to look back at my notes. One thing that stuck out to me was that we need to act on the spiritual promptings that we receive asap. One of my goals is to recognize when I'm having a prompting and to act on it. Another things that stuck out to me most was the saying:

I am a Mormon! I know it, I live it and I love it!!

And it's true! I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the true church and I know that The Book of Mormon is true. I know Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love me and I love them both so much. I am thankful for both of them and I am thankful to have knowledge of the gospel in my life.
