Conference Countdown Challenge 37/37

As of right now, there are 37 Days until the next General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There also happen to be 37 talks given at our previous conference held in April, 2012. So, today I would like to extend an open invitation to join the “37/37 Conference Countdown Challenge“, where we will read & study one April 2012 Conference talk per day in preparation for our next General Conference 37 days from now (Oct 6-7, 2012)!

(NOTE: if you’re reading this a little late, don’t worry! Just download the schedule and jump on in!)

A very Special Thanks goes out to my beautiful, clever and talented friend Katie B. for creating this handy-dandy Google Doc:

“Now as we leave this conference, I invoke the blessings of heaven upon each of you. . . May you ponder the truths you have heard, and may they help you to become even better than you were when conference began two days ago.

Until we meet again in six months’ time, I ask the Lord’s blessings to be upon you and, indeed, upon all of us, and I do so in His holy name—even Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior—amen.”

– President Thomas S. Monson, Sun. April 1, 2012

OK! Let’s Get Started!

Today’s assigned talk is entitled: “AS WE GATHER ONCE AGAIN“. This was the opening Conference address on Sat. March 31, 2012 by President Thomas S. Monson.

“We are here to learn. Some of you may be seeking answers to questions and challenges you are experiencing in your life. Some are struggling with disappointments or losses. Each can be enlightened and uplifted and comforted as the Spirit of the Lord is felt. . . as you listen to the inspired words which will be spoken…Our Heavenly Father is mindful of our needs. . .”

I hope you will enjoy participating in this challenge with me. I can’t think of a better opportunity to nurture our souls with inspired messages sent especially for us, at this time, from our Heavenly Father. By studying these messages we also have the opportunity to prepare our souls to receive God’s new messages which will be arriving in just 37 days! – MoSop
