Regional Conference

So, we found out about regional conference about two hours before it started... hurried to find a babysitter and got there just as the opening prayer started.  It was really good... and It was focused on strengthening your family, finding joy in your life, and really being worthy to attend the temple and answering the interview questions honestly.  The four points that were given on strengthening your family were :

  • Work hard and be industrious.  Someone who works hard, teaches their family to work hard, and always thinks of others needs before their own is ready when trials come into their lives.
  • Be Honest.  Need I say more?
  • Financial and Marital Fidelity.  Not just being true to your spouse in thought and physically but also being financially on the same page and not using money against the others goals.
  • Religiosity.  Attending your Church meetings, holding Family Home Evenings to teach your family about Jesus Christ, reading your scriptures regularly, and praying both as a family and on your own.  
I'd like to talk about it more... but we need to go so we're not late for this morning's session of Regional Conference and I wanted to jot down these notes before I forgot.
