Youth Conference 2015

At the end of June we had youth conference, which was quite the feat to execute. We decided to center youth conference on temples. So we did a temple blitz. Where we went to every temple from Provo to Logan- all 11 of them! I have to admit I was a bit skeptical at first about how this would turn out, but it really was incredible. We weren’t able to go in to all 11 however, we were able to have little devotionals outside every temple. And we did baptisms for the dead in the Logan and Bountiful temples. 

It involved a lot of driving but I think the youth in our ward really were able to get an understanding of the importance of temples in our lives. We had plenty of fun times as well playing at parks, ice cream stops, and going up Logan canyon. We even squeezed some time in for a service project. I definitely know that it strengthened my testimony of temples. And while I didn’t get a picture at a few of the temples, some did at all of them.

 I guess the only one I didn't get a picture in front of was the Logan temple. That's on another leader's camera. At the end of the conference we had a really powerful testimony meeting. It really was such a fun (and busy) two days. I really love all the kids in my ward and it was fun spending so much time together.
