Amazing Experience

I was able to sing in the world-wide broadcast for the Relief Society General Meeting.  We learned to sing with our eyes and our faces.  If you see it on lds.org you can only see me in the last song.  I am on the left hand side middle.  You can see my bangs in a lot of the other shots :).  This was a great dream come true for me to be able to sing at the Conference Center.  Also earlier this year I was able to play the organ on Temple square.  That is two dreams in one year.  Kind of fun!

Our director was an amazing woman.  She gave us a quote by Brigham Young, "Let us speak words of comfort or consolation.  When you are influenced by the Spirit of Holiness and purity, let your light shine: but if ye are tried and tempted and buffeted by Satan, keep your thoughts to yourselves- keep your mouth closed; for speaking produces fruit, either of a good or evil character." (Brigham Young Discourses 166).  She talked us about being mindful of leaving good or bad fruit wherever we are.  We all have a presence.  We either add or subtract to the room.  So let's do more to add good fruit into our lives and the lives of others.
