October 13 - Details

Dear Family and Friends,

Hello!

We've been busily working on details for our upcoming conference this week. I think by default, Kent got the teaching part and I got the details like: food, hotel, emails, making sure fights were scheduled and getting acquainted activities. Somehow when I type that list, it doesn't seem like I was very busy but the time seems to have been gobbled up with the details.

There really isn't a lot more to write this week so I won't drag this on. I do want to share a picture of some shoes I saw at the mall last week. I also want to express my gratitude for a wonderful General Conference this month. What a joy it is to hear from apostles and prophets speaking to us and the challenges we face today. Every talk carried such a sweet spirit of love for our Heavenly Father, our Savior and all of our brothers and sisters on this earth and beyond. What a grand spiritual feast we had and look forward to enjoying again and again. In honor of dear Elder Hales, I end with the 3 sentences Elder Anderson shared with us that would have been part of Elder Hales' talk:" When we choose to have faith, we are prepared to stand in the presence of God. ...After the Savior's Crucifixion, He appeared only to those 'who had been faithful in the testimony of (Him) while they lived in mortality.' Those 'who rejected the testimonies...of the...prophets (could not) behold (the Savior's) presence, nor look upon his face.'...Our faith prepares us to be in the presence of the Lord."

We love you all,
The Tuckers
