General Conference

We were able to baptize Sister Corson this week.  She is the one that missed her husband's baptism because she was at the emergency room with her grandson.  It was a great service.  Even though there wasn't a lot of people there, the Spirit was very strong.  Sister Corson was a little confused about what a testimony was, so she stood up and prayed.  It was a little funny at first, but then Iheard the words she was saying.  It was amazing to hear her pray and bear her testimony to her Father in Heaven.  Her and her husband are not the rich, nor the learned.  They are both pretty old and I don't know how much strength they will give the ward, but I don't think I have ever baptized anyone with more pure faith in our Father in Heaven.  It has been such a privilege for me to get to know them.

I absolutely loved general conference--especially the Sunday morning session of conference.  I feel like all of the talks were in some way catered to me!  I guess that is how we are all supposed to feel though.

This coming week we have the mission tour with Elder and Sister Nielson.  I remember when Elder Evans came and the spirit that I felt there.  I am excited for the rejuvenating effect that I know this will have on my mission!

Hope you all have a great week!
