Our stake put on a great Youth Conference! All the kids in the Lincoln Stake, ages 14 and up, met at the stake center for breakfast and were put into their groups. Then we headed to the trail head for an awesome hike. The kids had to pick a rock from a big pile, write a trial on it that they are experiencing in their life, and place it in their backpacks, so they could carry it with them on the hike. They had 3 stops along the way where stake leaders would speak to them about different kinds of trials, why we have them, and what we can do about them. It was really cool! When we were done hiking, we went to Darby for the rest of the conference. The kids had some free time, and then Brother Eyring (President Eyring's son) spoke to them. It was SO good! Bailey and I had to leave early, so we missed the rest of Friday night, and all of Saturday. I heard we missed some really great stuff! Mark stayed the whole time, and said it was really good! We have awesome leaders, and awesome kids in our stake.
