This weekend flew by, as usual.
I attended a conference of sorts on campus, Stand for the Family Symposium put on by BYU's Law School. There were some wonderful talks and lectures. Several of my Jerusalem friends were also in attendance. Elder Porter spoke Friday night. We feel a special connection to him, since he stayed with us at the Jerusalem Center several weeks last fall, in addition to speaking to us at Stake Conference there in Jerusalem.
The whole conference was based on the fact that societies and people are forgetting the importance of families in regards to traditional values. Eating dinner with your children. Current divorce rates. It was a very interesting weekend.
Last night I covered Elder Rasband's talk at the church's CES Fireside. He spoke on friendship. It is so important to be a good and true friend as well as mentor. It definitely made me re-evaluate my friendships and whether or not I am the best friend and mentor to others.
Here is my article published in the paper today.
