Once again, I say after every single General Conference.... "This was the most marvelous General Conference ever!" I think that this one topped all the others. I told that to my husband once again, and he wisely said, "It's because you listened with the Spirit as they are all just as wonderful as the others." Oh it is so true, when you are tuned in with the Lords frequency, you get so much more out of everything! I have also included a few other old photos of the Provo Utah Tabernacle, in the olden days that I found on line. I love vintage photos... don't you?Did you feel like we did when you heard the announcements from President Monson about the building of more new Temples? Both my husband and I began to cry... as that announcement touched our souls, especially the rebuilding of the Provo, Utah Tabernacle. What a marvelous thing to do to restore the past into a beautiful temple. I can't wait! I am going to do my best to get tickets to the open house, as this one really brings me excitement! I found this cute postcard and other vintage photos of the Old Tabernacle so you can see what it use to look like. You can find them at http://www.provotabernacle.org
I loved the personality of our Prophet. I head him say that he wants to Dedicate the Star Vally Wyoming temple... because there is good fishing there. Now how cute was that? President Monson and the entire first Presidency have such wonderful personalities and I am so grateful for the messages that they gave to us.
I look forward to getting my Ensign so that I can reread the messages of this conference. I do know which one already I plan on doing for my Visiting teaching message, but you will have to wait and see.
This morning I spent an hour out in my tiny garden picking raspberries. I think it may be my last picking before the weather freezes. I loved it and have plans for those berries in a pie for my sweet husband.
Have a terriffic week! Enjoy this beautiful fall and the colors of nature! Be happy and spread the love!
Love, Katie G.
Thank you for inspiring messages and VT helps!! I too was soooo excited about the new temples especially the new Provo Temple. 20 years ago when my husband and I were at BYU we spent a good 4 hours trying to get a session in at the Provo temple:) I think the Provo saints will use the new Temple to its capacity:)
