What a refreshing, special Sunday we had. This weekend was Stake Conference for us and for all 68 stakes in northern California. President Eyring represented the First Presidency at the broadcast from SLC. Following the conference, President Dillender of the San Francisco West Stake generously spent an hour with us sharing his thoughts about the two units we serve in his Stake (the Chinese branch and the Filipino Ward.) It was a very worthwhile hour for us. And we are starting to get a workable routine.
Later that afternoon, Tanner Apeland, a young man from our home area, drove up from Salina, CA where he is attending college and playing basketball for the school .He and his teammate, Seth, joined us for dinner. Tanner is a great person with a fun personality; so it was frosting on the cake to have some time with him. We felt pretty special that he would take the time to drive an hour and three-quarters here and another hour and three-quarters back so he could see us. We'll always remember his visit.
Glad your visit with Tanner was so uplifting. A little bit of home can feel so good, so I'm sure it was great for all of you. You are doing great on your blog!
