General Conference takes place twice a year in April and October. It is when members of our church stay home to listen to sermons broadcast throughout the world on TV, radio, or Internet from the church's headquaters in Salt Lake City.
One year during General Conference, our family went out of town. I had a friend, not of our faith, who saw the empty church parking lot that Sunday and wondered why church was cancelled just because the Bishop was gone.
One of my favorite talks was given by President Faust on forgiveness. He talked of tragic events in the recent past and how family members were able to forgive. I thought it was very poignant.It really was the perfect couch day. I was able to take it easy and was uplifted with a renewed desire to better my life.

so sorry that you were sick! hope you're feeling better for the easter bunny!
Thanks.
I think it is just a spring cold.
I'm the only one in the family that is sick and I hope it stays that way.
Pres. Faust talk made me cry...what talk doesn't make me cry? These men speak with such conviction it is hard not to believe what they say it true. His talk was one of my favorites as well.
It was amazing! I think his emotions made it even more powerful.
