General Conference!!

Dear friends and family,
This week was a little bit like the week before Christmas as I waited with great excitement and anticipation for one of the best weekends of the whole year, General Conference. Oh my goodness conference was amazing! It is such a blessing to have a living prophet and apostles on the earth today. I loved the words of our dear prophet President Monson, who like King Benjamin has worn out his whole life in service to others. He spoke about letting our light shine by being an example of the believers in " word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith and in purity." What a wonderful and inspired message. I also loved President Nielson's talk about the need for covenant keeping women in the world. It made me very grateful for all the covenant keeping women who have influenced my life and helped me to become the person I am today. The best part about conference was that I felt like every talk was just for me. All the questions that I came to conference with were answered. I was given direction and counsel as to the things that I need to do as a missionary and as a soon to be returned missionary.

I am so so so grateful for conference! I'm grateful for inspired leaders who receive revelation from our Heavenly Father and can help us to navigate our journey here in mortality. I echo the words of a friend "how do people live their lives without general conference?"  I don't know and that's why I spend my days telling people about the restored gospel. That we have a living prophet once again. That God loves us and still speaks to us today.

As always thank you for all that you all do. Hope you have a wonderful week and if you did not get the chance to watch conference this weekend the church website is super on top of things and so you can go and watch what you missed today! You won't regret it.
Love
Sister Aase
