YOUTH CONFERENCE







Youth Conference for the Chino California Stake was this past weekend. Our theme was Serving our Savior or SOS. We were host parents. We were assigned 7 girls to stay with us. They were a great bunch of girls and we had fun with them. Our companion family were the Nathan and Debbie Nemrows with their boys. We spent some time there Friday evening having fun together. On Saturday morning we woke up the girls with "When you wish upon a star" music and hot chocolate. What a nice way to wake up! Each year at youth conference we have a service project. This year the youth had a carnival for handicapped youth. They had great music playing, everything was so festive! We were assigned the booth to paint faces. So that is why you see Grant inspecting to see that the painting was done well! He would stand out from the book and call people over to come and get their faces painted. As usual, Grant was a standout! Testimony meetings at youth conference are always the greatest. Grant and I were wondering if we had the quality of testimonies when we were this age that the youth of today have! Great conference!!!
