It is Stake Conference this weekend and so Brian and I went to the adult session in St. Cloud last night. The theme was on reactivating the inactive and they had a few people speak who had been inactive and are now active. They spoke about what brought them back into activity. In most cases they had a physical aliment that sent them crashing to the bottom and in all cases there was someone from the ward or branch that was right there to help them. These were home teachers / friends that had not given up on them even though they had gone inactive. They were there for them during good times and bad and it made these people realize that they really needed to be back in church. So back they came! The one guy from Willmar has only been active for 8 months but is now the Elder's Quorum president. He understands service from both sides of the fence now and I have an idea that he is going to make a very good EQ president.
Brian is up preparing to go to conference. We will be meeting at the ST. Cloud University Campus.
I need to get moving too! Off to another good day. Sunshine and Stake Conference!
