Stake Conference

We had a wonderful weekend with Stake Conference. We went to Manti to the temple on Friday night. The chapel session started at 7:00. I was honored when President Sharp asked me if I would like to play the organ for the opening song. It is truly a dream-come-true to be able to play the organ in the temple. The session was not very big for a weekend, and only a few stake members took the long drive over, but it was very nice. Most of us ended up at Denny's in Salina at about the same time. We were lucky to have Bro. Hinkins offer to buy us dinner so we took him up on the offer. Then we find out he is "politicing" because he filed for public office, where Sen. Dimetric is leaving! Anything for a vote!
The Saturday evening meeting was wonderful. The spirit was so strong as we listedn to Elder Wood from the Seventies. It was a wonderful meeting. Sunday morning was the same, with many good speakers and a great spirit. I really enjoyed the meetings.
Now we have a short week at school, but also Parent/Teacher/Student conferences until 9:00 on Tuesday. Thankfully we have spring break starting Thursday and we don't have to be back in the classroom until Wednesday (a day off on Tuesday because of the the long conferences.
