Stake Conference Surprise!

Well, today the choir sounded superb! John did an excellent job preparing our stake choir for Stake Conference in only 4 weeks. Elder Ballard and one of the 70 were there. It was a fabulous conference. I got to lead the congregational singing, and John led the choir. We were a little surprised when the Stake President spoke about our experience in getting sealed last June in the Priesthood Leadership meeting yesterday. John came home and said -- "Pres. Young spoke about us today. Not by name, but. . . " Well, today, Pres. Young even went that far: "He said, Brother Jorgensen and his wife were sealed on June 6th in the Draper Temple."

However, that was not the only surprise. We got this surprise last Sunday when the Stake Executive Secretary called us in for an interview with the Stake President. One week before Conference? Sound suspicious? Yep! John has been called, and today was set apart, as a member of the Stake High Council! Is John nervous? Oh, yeah! And he has been so happy being the clerk for the last 6 years. I guess it's time to move on to more experiences, and see just what the Lord has in store for us now.

Well, keep us posted on everyone's Christmas fun. We'll try to keep up, too.
