Ward Conference

For combined priesthood and Relief Society meeting we discussed the talks we had in sacrament meeting about what we can do as individuals. The points were made that we should bring people instead of sending. We need to invite people and that first invitation. brother Bahr said we need to live the gospel so others can see how happy we are so the gospel is appealing to others. The point was made by Brother Harker that with our new combined ward we have the opportunity to make new friends and share the blessings of the gospel. Sister Ferguson told of how she went to Scotland and was able to share a little bit of the gospel with store clerks and her own family. Brother Aaron Campbell told of the many friends he has here in Utah who are not LDS coming here for work. We need to befriend them and make them feel welcome so we can show them how appealing our lives in the Church are. Brother Les Campbell told about his interest lighthouses and how Christ is the lighthouse. We need to be lighthouses to others. It gives the Holy Ghost the opportunity to touch their lives even for a brief moment. Sister Cantrell thinks that genealogy and family history is one of the best missionary tools. She told of her father who was antagonistic until he got involved in genealogy and was touched by the spirit of Elijah. her daughter told of how she inserts references to the Church in her classes at Jesuit University. Sister Bahr works with many people in her real estate business and she always asks the to pray about finding the right home for them no matter what religion they are.
