   What a wonderful week end.  All the sessions of General Conference were just awesome.  We watched the first two Saturday sessions at home on our computer.  I went to the Priesthood Session at the Chapel.  I stopped to pick up an investigator (Gene)and to my surprise he had ask his daughter Tiffany to come.  I didn't know what to say other than come.  She loved it and asked if she could come again today.  She is in the pink and Gene, her dad, is to her right in the blue coat.  We also picked up the two McCullough sisters, Sarah and Hatti.  Just as we were leaving the Manchester Sisters called and asked us to pick one
                                                                                   of there investigators, Jo Ann.  So we had a

load.  It was wonderful.  They all loved it and Miriam and I love teaching them with the Elders and Sisters.  Gene's baptismal date is April 27th.  We are all looking forward to that.
   The pictures to the left are some random pictures of  the MLC we had last Tuesday.  President Stoker asked me to speak on the  sacred funds of Tithing and how we all are stewards in the wise use of these funds.  I always enjoy teaching.
   This coming week is transfers.  We have 6 new missionaries coming and 3 going home.  We go to the Temple Tuesday evening and we all look forward to that. When we look at the month of April, it is so busy.  But busy is always good.
   The work is wonderful.  The weather is starting to get warmer.  Spring is here and we love it.  I had almost forgot how wonderful spring is!  We had the hardest winter and that makes this time of the year even more special. 
    Conference was the best.  We are always spiritually renewed by all the wonderful messages.  It always feels good to get our batteries recharged.  We love the work and the work is true!!!!
