This weekend was our Stake Conference. Elders Nelson of the 12 and Pearson of the 70 were the visiting authorities. It is unusual to have a member of the 12, even for reorganization of the stake presidency, and to have a member of the 70 also is even more unusual. Elder Pearson is a new general authority and this was part of his training. I was impressed by his talks. He is fresh from 3 years as a mission president and in his early 40's. He is a member of the 1st quorum and one to watch for the future. It was interesting to see the choosing of a new presidency from the perspective of Stake Clerk.
Elder Nelson told about his experiences in Czechoslovakia and trying to get the Church recognized under the old communist regime. He also spent about an hour on the Abrahamic Covenant in the Priesthood Leadership Session.

What about the Abrahamic Covenant? Can you do a summary? Sounds like a very interesting meeting, and you said it was interesting from the perspective of a clerk, but you didn't say why or how. In the meantime, I had a nice Sunday in the Summit Ward. My laptop went weird yesterday--I had pluggin the power cord because the battery was going, then closed it and left it for a couple of hours and came back to find it would not turn on no matter what. This morning Tyler tried a different power cord at the office and it worked, but then he plugged in mine and it also worked. Who knows!! Hope it keeps working.
I echo Lynda's comments--would like more detail. If you get a chance, let me know too. Fun for you to have a blog, Richard. Nice to hear from you. How is school going?
