Elder Richard G. Scott


Last weekend was our stake conference. We were blessed to have Elder Scott preside at our meetings. Phil went to the priesthood leadership meeting Saturday afternoon where Elder Scott held a Q&A type meeting. Phil said it was really interesting. Oh, I think I forgot to mention on the blog, but Phil got a calling. He is the Young Men secretary and the assistant Priest quorum advisor. He is really enjoying his calling so far.

The Saturday adult session was incredible. Elder Scott asked a few questions and then turned to the congregation to raise their hands and answer them. He asked, "If you were to meet Joseph Smith, how would you prepare, and what would you ask him or thank him for?" His second question was, "If you were to meet Jesus Christ, how would you prepare and what would you thank him for?" These were good questions that invoked some thoughtful and spiritual responses.

My favorite part of the weekend was to hear an apostle of the Lord bear his heart felt testimony of the Savior Jesus Christ. The spirit was so strong and my testimony was definitely strengthened through his words and his presence. I am so blessed to live at a time with a living Prophet and apostles of the Lord on the earth.
