Woke up earlier today and went to the Stake Center. Got there just in time to save Mom & Tif a seat, then headed to the Choir warm-up. One of my callings in the YSA Ward is Music Chairman. And I'm the only one who will admit to being able to play hymns. I know several pianists in the ward, but they all claim to not be able to play hymns. I'm gonna call their bluff here in a little bit. I heard one of them practicing Moonlight Sonata between Sunday School and 3rd hour. If you can play Moonlight Sonata, you can tackle a couple hymns. Anyway - I'm always behind the organ. So I jump at the chance to sing. Our Stake Choir sang 2 songs for the Sunday Session of Stake Conference. Evelyn (our conductor) chose "Help Me Teach With Inspiration" and "Press Forward Saints". And both songs had 3 part women's harmony. I loved it.
The speakers were almost all the same as last night, but the talks were different. I feel kind of bad for them - they have to speak twice, one day then the other, and have to deliver 2 different talks. Seems like a lot of work that could be spread out... Not that I didn't like their talks. They were all different and all very good. Mom liked Brother Risenmay's so much that she wants a copy of it. He talked on the atonement. None of the information was new, but was put in such a way that it felt new.
We were home by about noon, which is a whole new sensation for me. Usually I'm just then getting ready to head to church. Mostly it was a lazy Sunday. I did some indexing, but that was about as productive as I got.
