Leesburg Stake Conference

Today was our stake conference . . . our stake president gave everyone the following three assignments:

1) Each week in Family Home Evening, pick one topic from the "For Strength of Youth" Pamplet, and organize your family home evenings accordingly. He said that there were 18 topics and 20 weeks left in the year. He said this applied to old/young, and all family types.

2) Invite someone/family to church between now and the end of the year. Make it a matter of family prayer/fasting.

3) Attend the temple, at a minimum, once per month. He said that he worries that if we do not go AT LEAST this much, then the individual members of the stake are not receiving the blessings promised to those that attend the temple.

Kaley and John gave talks in their ward today--about the traits that Pres. Hinckley has encouraged us to develop . . . Be True, Be Smart, Be Clean (and some other things too). Kaley said that she would post a favorite quote from her talk on the blog .. . so stay tuned!

Kaley also is working on the Arline Family History and will have a print out of some of the stories of Sophronia's parents ( our great -great grandparents).

Thanks,

Brittan
