Sunday Musings of the Spirit: Women's Conference


I failed to get a blog post up last Sunday.  I had planned on writing about a women's conference I attended on the previous day, but I was tired when I sat down to write.  I decided to leave the account for another day.  Today's the day!
Our church stake (geographical region consisting of several congregations) Relief Society (women's organization) held a conference on the 9th of this month.  The theme was "A Life of Devoted Discipleship," and four different classes were offered:

Sweet is the Peace: Applying the Atonement in Our Lives
Charity Never Faileth: Ministering in His Behalf
Lift Up Thy Heart and Rejoice!
LOL: Latter-day Online Learning
 
I wish I could just package up the spirit of that day and somehow send it to you through the blog.  It was so nice to meet together, listen to wonderful presentations, and visit over lunch.  

This 2-minute video might help share the empowering feeling of the day:

 




Thanks for Relief Society.

It's a fun challenge for writers, and a delight for readers. Go over to her blog to read what others have written, and feel free to post your own story, too! This week's prompt: twist. ********************************* The kids who moved in next door were big kids--much older than her 3-year-old self--but they might be fun to play with, and as they were coming towards her, the idea of them being new friends seemed at least possible. She was rather shy, but she understood the basics of making friends, so when those neighbors crowded all around her and asked her what her name was, she didn't hesitate to answer.  She thought she had spoken loudly enough, but apparently her shyness got the best of her, because they didn't seem to have heard her.  "Twisty?" they asked, and recognizing she needed to be even louder, she ...

Ten Things of Thankful: Valentine's Day is in Spring Edition

Despite what the groundhog predicted, here in my neck of the woods we have been enjoying balmy weather.  I think the nation needs a west coast groundhog to provide the local forecast.  I've spent time in my backyard this week, pruning palms and roses, pulling weeds, and planting raspberries and lilacs.  For those of you still buried in snow, I offer a hopeful glimpse of weather to come:
