Special Stake Conference – Bishop Burton
Today we had a special Stake Conference that was not on the normal schedule. Bishop Burton of the Presiding Bishopric came to speak to us and it was a wonderful meeting! He is Brittany’s idol (if you can say that about a general authority), because she loves it when he talks about the welfare program of the church and what the church is doing to help those around the world. 🙂
We were very concerned at first because we ended up right up in front on the second row and were not sure how Ben would behave. I took my iPad and he ended up playing with it the entire time and not making a peep! That device is TOTALLY worth its weight in gold! Not once did I have to tell him to be quiet Whew!
After the meeting was over, we were able to shake his hand and Brittany was totally excited! He was only able to shake a few hands before rushing out the side door due to his busy schedule so we considered ourselves very lucky that we were so close up front. There were many wanting to shake his hand that didn’t get the opportunity.
