Sister Christina Thacker: Week 53 Failed Monkey Bread and General Conference

Hello Family and Friends! Happy October

This week flew by so fast! The highlights of this week:

, and general conference!

I collected A LOT of leaves this week

it is fall and they are beautiful

We made Monkey Bread for General Conference because it is tradition. We didn't have the exact same ingredients or recipe but it was close enough. We tried muffins and also a bread pan. The muffins turned out pretty good, but the big one turned into a brick. It was way overcooked and there was not enough butter

oops. It was a fun experiment though.

We bought pumkins today to carve next week with our District, that is going to be super fun!

The biggest highlight of this week: GENERAL CONFERENCE!!

So fun fact about me, I will have 4 general conferences on my mission and I only have 1 left

that's right, I have about 6 months left on my mission and it is going very fast.

Main highlights of conference:

-If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear

-Obey the law and be kind to others

-We are all children of God

-We are not perfect, nor ever will be on our own.

My favorite talk would probably be Sister Cravens talk in the women's session. It was all about being better and the analogy she used was amazing. Our weakness are like pebbles in our shoes on our hike to Heaven and we need to get them out or it's just uncomfortable and hinders our progress. She also talked about seeing others deeply which was beautiful.

If you did not have the chance to watch general conference, I invite you to do so, it is so important! The Lord's Prophet and Apostles, His leaders on the earth, are speaking to us, giving us direction straight from heaven for what to do in this time. It is crucial to hear the words of the living Prophet and Apostles in order to continue staying firmly on the covenant path.

I promise you will find answers to your questions and peace in your heart.

I love you all so much!
