Week 19
HELLO EVERYONE :D
So yup Still here :P guess what........ we're triple covering now.... with Sisters Fitzgibon and Katoa..... and guess what again.... Sister Fitzgibon is from Kellyville (maybe you know them?)........ small world huh. So our new ZL is Elder Puckridge from Adelaide who used to serve in the Ukraine (Elder Jorg Klebingat was one of his Mission presidents) but they closed his mission so he came here. and I've just noticed... there are 7 companionships with an Aussie in them in our zone... didn't realise there were that many of us. oh yeah another sister in our zone Sister Ryan is from Sutherland in Sydney (you know them dad??? bc you know everyone :P) I thought you guys would've liked the closing prayer of the Saturday Morning session. If you can't remember go listen to it again! and yes I thoroughly enjoyed conference too. (We have General Conference at Church twice a year, and following is some quotes from some Apostles, and General Authorities. You can listen to or read the talks HERE.)
Some quotes I liked:
"Remember which way you face"
"Just because you resent the law of gravity doesn't mean you won't fall off a cliff"
"Lord, is it I?"
"Love one another as I have loved you" (emphasis added)
"the internet doesn't have a truth filter"
"Yes Lord, I will follow thee"
"I am my brother's brother"
"Decisions determine destiny"
"Walk the path that Jesus walked ... His path will take us safely home"
"We share it because it's important to us"
"May we return to our homes wi th a resolve in our hearts to be a littlebetter than we have been in the past. May we be a little kinder and more though tful"
These are the talks I starred bc I liked them
Sat AM session: Elder D Todd Christofferson, President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Sat PM session: Elder Jorg Klebingat, Eduardo Gavarret
Priesthood: President Dieter F. Uchtdorf, President Thomas S Monson
Sun AM session: President Henry B Eyring, President Thomas S Monson

I took about 9 pages of notes for the entire conference..... that's a lot for me.
I also met a guy at conference who used to be in Quakers Hill about 8 years ago Kreamer Haterake-Brown (not sure of last name)
