I have thoroughly enjoyed my calling in Young Womens. It has been so much fun to get to know the youth and all their fun, unique personalities. I had the opportunity to go to youth conference with those 14 and older. We went to the Delta Power Plant which sounds extremely boring, but it was amazing. The facility has all sorts of activities including ping pong, pool, shuffle board, volleyball, basketball, big open rooms for sleeping, dining area and commons area. Jason Hokanson spoke for our fireside that night. He was paralyzed from the waste down when he was 15 in a car accident on his way to Lake Powell with his family. He is so positive and continues to make goals especially in sports - snow and water skiing, basketball, biking, etc... It was very inspirational. Then we had Sundaes and played games for the rest of the night. After breakfast the next morning, we had testimony meeting where the spirit was so strong. It was then time to clean up and head out. It was short, but very sweet. We also brought a neighborhood cat along with us in the back of the truck with all the luggage. We kept it in the back of the truck while a few of the youth fed it meatballs. He made it all the way back home alive and in one piece!
