Im here to fill you in on Youth conference this year.
This year our stake president got together with 6 other stake presidents and put together a youth dance celebration as recommended by the Prophet.
We practiced our dances for months and were finally ready for the performances. The event was a three day event with devotionals, singing, a dance, and three performances. The first day was learning about the performances, devotionals, and a 7 stake dance. Day two was a devotional from sister Cook a member of the General Young Women presidency, a super long dress rehearsal, and an evening performance. Day three was more devotionals a fix-up-the-mistakes rehearsal, and two performances.
All three days were awesome!!!!
Since it was three days long I will cover the days in three posts, hehe see what I did there.
Everyday we prayed for great weather, there was even a 7 stake fast for great weather.
This was the weather for day one: Nice and warm and humid, but not as bad as the average July day.
This is Brother Toma and another sister from a different stake. They taught us the military songs that we sang in each performance.
This is my buddy Ibrahim Kargbo, probably during lunch.
This is WILLY! My best buddy and dance partner!
Brother Toma again for a wonderful devotional!!!! Brother Toma is a member from our stake who I have had the opportunity to work with in our stake youth committee. He is an amazing man! He also works for the CES and is an amazing story teller. He is a real inspiration and I respect him a lot! He talked about really talking to God and not just speaking. AWESOME!
Thats all for day one folks, Don't worry day two is still to come.
