i love general conference. being a member of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints and being able to hear the words of a living prophet here on the earth... today. modern revelation, just for us.
twice a year, the members of our church gather at the lds conference center in salt lake city, utah (and all around the world, via satellite broadcast, over the internet - translated into many languages) to hear the words of our church leaders. its a wonderful time, because there is always something in their words that is especially for me. and for you.
the church leaders spoke of the 65634 missionaries currently labouring to share the words of the gospel of jesus christ - the 20000 waiting to enter - and the 6000 currently undergoing the interview process. what a difference the changing of the age has made! all these people, ready to go and preach the gospel. such a wonderful thing.
the church is promoting its message more and more through the efforts of worldwide social media and even published the hash tag (which can be used on media such as twitter & instagram) #ldsconf during the opening and closing scenes of the broadcast. i had a look and there were so many wonderful quotations on line...
here are a few of my favourites!... hope you enjoy
can't wait for the next one...
