Women's Conference

Women's Conference was held at BYU on May 2, and 3rd.  Kate and I were privileged to be asked to host at one of the venues.  We looked official with our lovely blue vests and badges. 

Ten's of thousands of women gather to be taught and learn gospel principles, family relations, womanhood, as well as other topics,  There were over 200 presenters who shared their perspective.  I was surprised by how many presenters were from my stake and even ward.  What amazing woman I am surrounded by.

My job was line control, making sure food and drink were not brought into the facility, and welcoming. Kate was the official counter. With her clicker in hand she was able to determine how many guests were in attendance and insure the facility was not over crowded. If you have ever been in the Smith Fieldhouse, you may know that it will probably never fill to capacity.

We had an enjoyable time visiting the Sharing Stations, and participate in the the humanitarian service project once our shift was over.  I am completely in awe at the organization, and talent of the Women's Conference Committees.  It was amazing to be a part of such an extraordinary and inspiring conference.

We spent the night at a hotel with friends, laughing and talking until the wee hours of the morning.  Friday, we were able to attend the opening ceremony and listen to Michelle King speak.  What a wonderful, up-lifting speaker she is.  We were only able to attend one more class before it was time for us to leave for Sarah's college graduation.
