General Conference 2015

Hey family!!!



Can I just say wow!?! WOW! Wasn’t conference amazing or what? I hope you all had the chance to watch the sessions and make a goal to apply the things that were said to your life!! Before I start how my week went, I would like to make a goal with each one of you! I hope you all heard the talk Ponderize... I would like to make a goal as a family to start this. Can we, as a family, focus on one scripture each week? I want to hear your stories, I want to know how it affected you, and I want to know what in your behavior or everyday activities changed because the scripture you personally focused on that week. I would love if each week you all could write me what your scripture is and what you learned. So out of the 7 of you, please make it a new goal to write a little letter every week to me so I can know how you all are doing and how the gospel and the scriptures are changing you. Thank you so much and I can't wait to hear all your stories!


For me this week, I am starting my first week of Ponderizing with 2 Nephi 25:26:
“And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.”

 What is your verse?? ;)

I learned so much from conference this week!! I loved the influence they had on being strong in the doctrine and beliefs, keeping the Sabbath day holy, tribute to the prophets and apostles that have passed, motherhood and women!! Conference was so powerful!



One of the talks I absolutely loved was Elder Holland's talk. I just want give a huge thank you to an amazing mother that not only bore me in childbirth and carried me for 9 months but has carried me for me for 21 years. She is so amazing and she really has been a huge strength and a powerhouse to us four children. Thank you mama! We all love you so much. We are blessed to feel your spirit and have the opportunity to hang onto your testimony, along with daddy's, until we formed our own. I know that you both dedicated the past 26 years to each one of us. I know that it was not an easy burden to bear. We all had our ups and downs but you both always showed your love! Mama, thank you for being the most amazing woman in the world. Thank you for carrying me to where I am today and helping me be a little bit more like you. Mama, I hope you know that each one of us girls only can hope and inspire to be half the woman and mother that you are!! I love you mama! And I love you too daddy!! Thank you for being the father that has led and guided me all of my life! I can say that I definitely have the best parents in the world!


As for my week, we were in Bayamon and in Ponce this week driving like crazy to get my companion to the doctor’s office and get her foot checked out. Please keep her in your prayers along with President Monson! He looked super weak at Conference! My companion is now on meds to help her get a little bit better. We will find out the results of the lab work this week!
I love you all greatly and hope you all have a great week!! Jaren, congrats on taking the
Test. I’m praying that everything works out perfectly!! Ama a todos y espero que todos tienen un incredible semana!!

Con Amor Siempre,

Hermana Harris
