Temple Conference

 Next to the Ogden temple, brought back a lot of memories. We could bring one other person with us so I invited Christine. 

Very short (only about an hour) but very nice. Special guest, Elder and Sister Eckboe from the Seventy. Told us how important the work we’re doing really is and how the Savior is grateful to us. 

The Temple matron mentioned her sister who fell away from the church and died in 2020 from a brain tumor. She wondered if she should do her sister’s work in the temple the next year, and her husband counseled her that wasn’t her decision to make. So she went ahead with the work and really felt her sister’s spirit. 

I almost hated to leave.

Elder Stevenson

 His wife talked about her niece’s son who relied on ChatGPT for comfort during a tsunami evacuation. 


He mentioned how his father found an arrowhead during a camping trip with his father and he didn’t know it was the real thing but he said it looked like a Christmas tree. 


He sent greetings from the First presidency. He joked about how he once made breakfast on fast Sunday and the deacons smelled the bacon. 


We could call ourselves Restorationists. 

He invited us to partake of the fruits of the temple. 

Happy Birthday, Grandpa
