Quarentine Conference

This is an odd time.  We don't go to school.  We don't got to work.  We don't visit people.  We only go out to get groceries.  Rumors swirl around like dust devils. The stock market plummeted.  People are jumpy and nervous.  Masks block our mouths so we can't understand each other or read expressions.  The media proclaims devastation and it feels like the second coming is around the corner.  We were all desperate and anxious for General Conference and to hear our prophet.  Pres Nelson spoke to us in every session.  We participated in a solemn assembly to honor the 200th anniversary of the restoration.  The prophet announced a worldwide fast and 9 new temples including Shanghai and Dubai.  We also received a proclamation honoring the restoration.  The power of the weekend for me was the familiarity, peace and calm that came from hearing apostles and prophets.  The doctrine was soothing.  The truth felt cool and refreshing.
