Happy Birthday Kendra!!

Today is Halloween! We had a few visitors...Little Red Riding Hood (Chloe), Obe Wan Kenobi (Jordan) and some cute swim girls. Along with our Month End Breakfast, we also celebrated Kendra's 16th Birthday! Stuart played his guitar all during class and we LOVED it! Jordan sang along (with the "Force" of course)! McKay and Kaity were some of those who did some fancy pictionary drawings of their favorite scripture mastery scriptures after breakfast. Brother Northrup cooked up a great breakfast and got fancy with his pancakes! He also brought us delicious bacon! He needs to be on the FOOD network :) Thanks SO much for all your help!!

Brother Eason joined us today too! Thanks for the OJ!

Matt and Rachel used their "Force" on Jennifer's breakfast. I think we better leave those light sabers with Obe Wan!

Rock on Stuart!

Thanks Stuart for sharing your amazing talent with us today during breakfast!

Countdown to Conference

For the last 2 weeks we've been counting down to General Conference which will be held tomorrow and Sunday (yea...10 hours of TV time!) We've learned about many of the Apostles who will speak to us and share inspired messages. Next week we will have the opportunity to share with each other some of the things we learned! Conference session times (PT) on Saturday are: 9-11am, 1-3pm and the Priesthood session is 5-7pm. Sunday times are 9-11am and 1-3pm.

Elder Quentin L. Cook

Elder Cook was called to be an apostle in 2007. He worked as a business lawyer earning his degree in political science from Utah State University. Hi earned his Juris Doctor degree from Standford University. He is a native of Logan, Utah. He served in the British mission. He also served as mission President of the Pacific Islands and Northwest Areas. Thanks Russell for a job well done on your devotional today!

Elder Richard G. Scott

I loved Elizabeth's devotional today about Elder Scott. He was born in 1928 in Pocatello, Idaho. His father wasn't a member. His father served with the dept of Agriculture and later joined the church because of the example of President Ezra Taft Benson. Elder Scott served his mission in Uruguay. He turned down a prominent job offer in order to go, but was blessed when he came back with an even better job. He worked as a nuclear engineer. He was called to be an apostle in 1988.

And the Password IS........

Our scripture mastery studies this week included a game called "Password". The prompter gave his team a key word that they then had to try and figure out the scripture. A bonus point was added for the team that looked up the verse first. Everyone also paired up and memorized at least 2 more SM! They are doing a great job!

Elder Robert D. Hales

It was interesting to hear what Rachel shared about Elder Hales today. He was born in New York City and is a graduate of the University of Utah. He received his masters in business administration from Harvard. He served in the US Air Force as a jet fighter pilot. He was called as an Apostle in 1994. He also served as the president of the England London Mission in the late '70's. He has 2 sons with his wife Mary Crandall. Thanks Rachel!!
