General Conference


In between sessions of Conference everyone goes outside to eat lunch. I don't know if you can see how big those sandwiches are the missionaries are eating. Pretty crazy - But some forgot to bring something or didn't have food in their apartment to bring. Next October I'm going to bring food for people just in case they have the same problem again.

The bottom picture is two of our YA - Kristoff and Csaba. Csaba (in the white shirt) brought a large loaf of bread, some cheese spread and meat. He was sharing with everyone. He kept trying to get me to try some, but fortunately I had already eaten. I'm not sure what it was, but the only thing that looked safe was the bread. Regardless, it was very nice of him to share.

You might notice that some of the people are dressed very casually. The Mission Pres was talking to us about that in between sessions. He doesn't want anyone not to come because they don't have church clothes and yet he wants them to know the importance of dressing appropriately for church. It's kind of a touchy subject - I'm learning that there's alot of things to consider here that we sometimes take for granted in the states. Everyone came at 11:00 this morning for the Priesthood session and the YW Broadcast. Then at 2:00 we watched Saturday afternoon session, then 6:00 was the Sunday Morning session. So by the time everyone got home some had been gone for 10-12 hours depending on the distance they had to travel. It was a very long day.
